    Christmas guns as a kid.

    What guns did Santa bring you before you were 13?
    The two that I can think of were an Ithica M-49, single shot .22 and a Marlin M-39 lever action .22.

    In 1971 Santa brought my an Ithica model 66 (.410) I still use it to teach my kids and their friends but it cheaper to shoot 12ga and move then up asap.
    It takes a lot of balls to play golf the way I do.

      A bb gun. A 410 bolt action shotgun and a 22RF semi-auto rifle.
      A 30cal will reach out and touch them. A 50cal will kick their butt.

                When I was a kid I wasn't allowed to have toy guns.


                Obviously, that worked out very well.
                So I was driving home from the range and I noticed that the scent of warm steel, burnt gunpowder and lukewarm coffee combined and smelled oddly of... Peanut butter?! Man, the Hoppe's is going to my head.

                  Couple super soakers and a crossman BB gun. Old friend of mine posted on FB her 12? year old son opening a new 20GA 870 for Christmas, I was honestly a bit jealous.

                    Dad gave me a bolt-action single-shot .22 for Christmas 1969 (10 years old).
                    Still have it.

                        Nada... was in a sort of no gun household ... thankfully I don't just listen to what I'm told, I rather research and make my own decision on my views.

                          I got a Crossman pellet gun for my 8th birthday. Then on xmas 4 years later I got a spring loaded bb pistol. At 14 I was given a co2 pistol for my birthday. That was the end of it until I turned 18 and bought myself a shotgun.

                              My first gun(when I was 12 y/o) was a S&W .357 mag with an 8 1/3 inch barrel. Which I kept fully loaded next to my bed. (different times)
