What was your first firearm you bought?

[rdt]

Winchester 9422. Don't remember the price, but bought it from Tom Thumb grocery back when they carried that sort of thing. Still have it. Paper route paid for it. And yes, my dad had to pick it up, but I was able to buy at 12 years old.

Your 12 year old self had good taste.

First ever was my Savage 110FP tactical in 308 win. Still a good shooter for being 30 years old and many miles of being drug through the woods and weather.

First bought was a ruger P89, at 25 right after the navy. My ex wife swiped it when moving out. But I got another and still have it today, and it is still a tack driver.
