Savage 110FP(older version of the 10fp) with harris bipod, and leupold scope. Tons of work had been done to it. $250 bucks at a pawn shop. I was about 2 weeks past 18 and knew a hell of a lot more about firearms than I do now and the Pawn shop owner thought it was the regular savage you could get a walmart with a big barrel. Go figure. My dog could have raped him and it would have hurt him less once I told him what it was and how much it was worth. I did this AFTER I'd paid for it. I traded it for a Ruger M77 in .270 AND a Kawasaki Bayou 4 wheeler.

I was 18, 1981, I ordered a Colt sporter SP-1. The gun shop owner looked at me like I had two heads. I didn't even know anybody who owned a AR-15. I had seen one in a gun catalog and had to have it. I traded it for a Colt 45 1911.......I still miss that rifle.

First handgun was an old Sturm-Ruger 41mag 4+" barrel single action revolver.
First firearm was a Sheridan Sliver Streak .177 pellet rifle. Still have both and they they both are still excellent shooters (although the pellet rifle has been completely reworked by Sheridan a couple times as the compression tends to fade after a few years of heavy use, but the barrel had never been replaced) Mike ps - and NO the old 41 ain't sporting no transfer bar upgrade........ |

IIRC, it was a Mini-14. Still have it......
...and still like it!!!!  (Now that I'm done cussing at it, beating it against trees, threatening it with use as a trotline weight, and got some good mags for it  )

Oh man, please dont kick me off the board. My first gun I bought was a Lorcin .380. If that wasnt bad enough, the second handgun I bought was a S&W Sigma. Stepped up to a Sig after that. Now I own 2 XD's.

First ever gun I bought w/ my own $$ was a Crossman 1600 Powermatic BB gun. I was probably 15 or so. I still have it, I'm sure it still works, and I'm saving it for when my kids are old enough to get into shooting.
First "real" gun bought 50/50 between my fiancee and myself: Springfield Armory XD-9 subbie. Definitely still have it and shoot it. First "real" gun bought totally w/ my own money was another XD-9 subbie, as a present for my fiancee. I had it Gun-Koted blue (w/ silver parts) by Rich at Canyon Creek. I still have it, and my fiancee shoots it. |

Mine was the world-renowned Accu-Tek .380. It was basically like a Walther PPK but manufactured by retards.
Attempts to improve it were futile, and it eventually found its way back to another gun dealer. |

First gun I ever bought was a Beretta 92FS from my older brother. I loved that gun and always wanted one.
He was killed in a car accident a few years ago so now that gun means more than any one piece I have in the safe. I can't help but hold it every time I open the safe....

My first was S&W 3913 and it was a LEMON!!!! First trip to the range I couldn't hit paper at all so I gave it the old timer in the stall next me and he couldn't hit paper either. Sent it back to S&W for repair and they replaced the barrel, guide rodand spring. I could now hit the paper but after 30 or so rounds the ambi safety/decocker lever popped off and went flying across the range. Traded that 3913 in for a G19 and ten years later I still have the G19.

My brother bought a Ruger P89 a few months before I got my permit, due to it's being on sale for a very nice price. The first handgun I walked out with myself was a Bersa .380, while years before the first rifle I bought was a Ruger 10/22. I love them all.

Got a Savage Falling Block single shot 22LR at age 13 (Dad purchased), got my very own 10/22 at 18, and then when I hit 21 a Sig Sauer P226 in 9mm.
The 2005 SEBR will be my first assault rifle purchase and first AR15. The reason I joined the team!

I think it was a Ruger P85DC? I remember trading it to my brother a bit later. I did keep a Daewoo DH40 for a long time until it too was traded out for a newer pistol. My first rifle was Colt Match Target Competition. That has also been traded for a newer, more applicable rifle.
