What Was Your First Firearm?

Glock 22. Bought it off a friend. Great gun.

Mine was a Marlin M39A .22 lever action. It was a Christmas present when I was about twelve.

First NEW rifle was a Remington 700 BDL Custom Deluxe, cal 270 Win. Beautiful gun back then...1979. I no longer have a Remington.......

First Handgun: S&W 5903
First Rifle: Norinco NHM-91 chamber in .223 (basically AK in .223)
First Shotgun: Benelli M2 Tactical

Sold both the S&W and Norinco before the SB23 ban took effect. Acquire the shotgun much later in life and that remains the only shotgun I have, or plan to have for a long time.

My first was a Potato Gun, got me into way too much trouble, so My dad got me a 10/22

[blackfalcon]

Smith and Wesson model 659. It was heavier than a brick.

I'm embarrassed to claim it, but it was my first....(I don't have a pic of it but this will do)

My buddy's dad still has one of those lying around.

As for me, first was my S&W 686

[ChaneRZ]

Glock 19

When I was eight, my dad gifted me a 1917 Budapest Mannlicher carbine in the original 8x50r. I still have it. That was 1961. And that probably is why I am old school, liking bolt guns.

The first firearm I ever bought was a Japanese Arisaka Type 99 long rifle in 1982 from the San Francisco Gun Exchange. They gave me a brown plastic bag to cover it and I rode the cable car back to where I was staying. Got a lot of stares.

haha I bet....Reminds me of taking my 91/30 out of my cousins car to store it in his apt in the city.....was covered by a blanket but still felt very strange for those 15 feet on the sidewalk.



Mine was an 1858 New Army Black powder revolver- worth every penny. First cartridge arm was a 91/30 Mosin Nagant. Worth twice every penny. :-)
