    The .22 rifle I bought when I was 10. I'm 52. Still have it. Just a simple Remington bolt gun.

          Winchester Model 1906. The serial number shows it was manufactured in 1914. Was a shooting gallery gun at a carnival that my wife's great grandfather bought. In pretty good shape. Love shooting it.

                  I was able to buy a Civil War Era Burnside Carbine that is in great shape. Not the oldest, but very nice.

                        My oldest gun is technically my newest gun- a plasma rifle in the 40-watt range that belonged, or will belong, to my currently unborn son. No magazine restrictions, too. Gotta love that!

                          A 1871 Mauser Carbine, a few trap door Springfields and a Martini Henry rifle - all around the same age.

                          I had a Snider converted carbine - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snider%E2%80%93Enfield - but I gave that to a friend who was in love with it.

                                Wow some really nice pieces here!
                                I don't have anything that is worthy enough but my oldest would be a Beretta 92D made in the late 90's.
