Well, not really.
One just like it.


My first gun was a Glenfield .22 carbine purchased at the Gibsons around 1970.
I got it for Christmas when I was 12 years old.
I shot a brazillian rounds through it.

Some A**hole stole it from my Dads truck a few years later.

I've looked for one like it for years.
Lots of long tube guns around, but few 10 shots.

Finally found one today, in mint condition with appropriate scope.
Not a black rifle, but a pretty cool first gun for a 12 year old.
Especially one whose parents indulged, and trusted me with it.
They're both gone, but I remember that Christmas, and them like it was yesterday.
Please forgive a sentimental fool.

Cool story and nice rifle



ETA  not cool the a hole taking the gun

Nice rifle.

Mine too.  I still have my Glenfield 75.

 Nice rifle OP.

 

Very nice rifle......you can't beat a .22 rifle for just plain fun. I still have the one my dad gave me around 40 years ago, a bolt action Mossberg model 340. It is a real tack driver:

Cool story. Thanks for sharing.

Now go shooting

I still remember my Marlin model 60

Nice rifle you got there

nice rifle and great story too.

That was my first gun too... about the same time you got yours. I still have mine and I've never had more fun with any of my other firearms. Good times.

UPDATE
Finally got to shoot it this weekend.
50 yd group with original Bushnell 3/4" .22 scope.  Half ass rest.
Federal Mao Mart ammo.
Not bad if I do say so myself.
