    My very first pistol was a taurus revolver. 357mag.


    Me and a friend just went down to a gun store in town. He bought...lol...one of those 25auto's


    That POS revolver locked up after a half a box of ammo. Between the cylinder and forcing cone lip. Junk.

    I don't even remember getting rid of it.

    Best time shooting of my life. We just shot trees. And the 4 hours of angle(HOA)....of that 25auto, was funny.

    My father gave me his Colt MKIV 80 Series officers model. All stainless with the Enhanced package. I've never shot it..

    I owned long guns growing up but my first pistol? I'm almost ashamed to admit it but it was a Jennings 9mm. I had just gotten out of the Army and it was all I thought I could afford at the time. It definitely taught me a lot about failures to feed, failures to eject, stovepipes, etc...

    Did it have "crips 4 evah" scratched on the side of it?

    Must be the reason I like TX. Nothing says "Bad Ending" more then a Jennings. You hope it don't jam, cuz then youre getting beat with it. I rather just take the bullet and get it over with.
