Remington 552 Speedmaster. I think it was around 1966-67 when my dad gave this to me. I still have this rifle and it is still in Remington's product lineup. One of the few rifles that shoots .22 Short, Long and Long Rifle ammunition. T-Boy | |||

For real? |
My mom bought me a Beretta 92F on my 17th birthday. I will give that same gun to my son (he's 26) after his wife turns 21 later this year. Not minority enough! | |||

My first firearm was given to me by my dad whenever I was 5 years old. It was a Eastern Arms .410 shotgun. That was 1955. It was his gun whenever he was a kid. I still have it after 62 years. First rifle? I can't remember. First handgun? Colt Woodsman. I was 12 years old, if I remember correctly. My dad would never buy me a BB gun. Said they were too dangerous.

SP2022 in 9mm. Dear friend of mine that passed a few years ago was an FFL. He convinced me I needed a handgun. Some days, I curse him for infecting me with this disease. But a least my firearm collection is worth a lot more than my wife's shoe collection. | |||

My first projectile firing gun was a Crosman .177 I received from my dad at age 12. My first actual fire producing weapon was a Valmet 12 gauge over/under I received as a Christmas present from my parents while I was in college. | |||

For my 15th birthday my Dad bought me a Remington Nylon 66 rifle, 22LR. For my 16th he bought me a Fox Model B, 20GA, side by side shotgun. When I turned 21 I bought myself a S&W Model 19, 4" 357 Combat Magnum. To this day I still have these in my collection, 51 years after getting the first one. I cherish the 66 and the Model B, great gifts from my Dad who has long passed away.
