What was your first?

Ok... Someone asked what kind of knife you all carry.

What was your first gun? (And not that Daisy Red Rider you got when you were 6)

I had a Remington model 6 .22 rolling block that I had have repaired. I even made some of the parts In high school shop class.

yup - that, the 7 CZs & the love for hi-point firearms about seals it

My first gun was a Pedersoli reproduction 1763 shortened pattern Brown Bess Dragoon Carbine. Flintlock ignition, 75 caliber smooth bore. Been through hell and back and sure does show it.

Regarding GR-Joe, you guys sure have a way of killing a subtle appearance.

gunssb · 04-06-2005, 06:27 PM

My first was a 10/22.

$imple · 04-06-2005, 08:02 PM

RodneyKSig · 04-06-2005, 08:14 PM

Stevens Model 15 singleshot twentytwo rifle - got it from my Grandad when I was eight, and I still have it!

Thrawn · 04-06-2005, 09:22 PM

A No. 4 Enfield that is badly bubba'd and that lacks anything resembling rifling.

The seller seen me a mile away,

told me that it was a "rare short stock" version, and I never thought to check the rifleing. $190.00@ 8 years ago.

I've learned ALOT about mil-surps since then.:cheer: If it was'nt for my first SKS it's likely that would've been my last mil-surp, or firearm.

Left a bad taste for a couple of years.

anybody want to buy a super rare enfield for 200.00

gunssb · 04-06-2005, 10:20 PM

Thrawn why not get a stock for it & fix it up - that way you will sleep peacefully at night :right:

asgard_prince · 04-06-2005, 10:24 PM

16 guage mossy bolt. I still have it, and still use it.
