I got some money on my 9th birthday (1989), told my parents I was buying a gun and they laughed. I snuck out of my party, went across the street to an elderly neighbor’s that I was very close to, and $20 later I returned with a Colt Frontier Scout, with the LR and magnum cylinders, western belt and holster he had made, and a few boxes of ammo. I walked in wearing it and everyone was as speechless, lol. I will never sell it. A few years after that he gave me a marlin 39a and an m1 carbine, which I still have.
Yup, a Remington Nylon 66. Still shoots great. Parents bought it for me for Christmas at the Bamberg Germany US Rod and Gun Club in 1965.
