M1A and a 1911. I didn't much care for the AR-type rifles back then, although I kinda liked the AR-180's. If you can believe this they were selling them at J.C. Penney back in the 70's.

15 rounds (standard-capacity magazine), +1 in chamber, 20 rounds (extended magazine)
The MAB PA-15 (Pistolet Automatique 15, also known as the P-15 or P.15 Standard) was designed by the Manufacture d'armes de Bayonne. The model number, 15, refers to the magazine capacity. When introduced, this was the first pistol holding a greater number of rounds than the 13-round Browning Hi-Power. The PA-15 was introduced in 1966....

ETA-I always thought it was the Browning High Power, for some 2 extra rounds is 9mm Steroids.


ETAA- Browning High-Power and an M-14 with all the right switches.

What I had shortly after 1977 changed to 1978; AR-15 Sporter and either my Model 29 or Model 39.  I still have that combination today, along with the 879 Police model I added to my collection before the end of 1978.
