[QUOTE="nofearfactor, post: 2481828, member: 1535"] I cant decide which one of my older firearms is the most sentimental to me. When I was about 6 or 7 I got a Winchester Model 290 for Christmas. Old school tube feed semi auto. Still shoot it almost daily along with my more modern .22 rifles. Goes in the shop here and there for a spring,etc but its been a pretty good old gun, old skool scope and all. My father was a retired Marine and had been a cop, he gave me one of his Beretta 92's. I have 3 different 92s but its my favorite. I had graduated HS and went off to tech school and was living in Oakland in a pretty wild neighborhood late 80s. My dad and his girlfriend were in the San Francisco area one day so they swung by to pick me up for lunch. When he saw my neighborhood is when he gave me the pistol that he carried in his car. I had a couple of pistols and revolvers as well as a shotgun and a few rifles but I guess he thought I needed another pistol too. Now I have all daughters and I have given all 3 of them pistols when they graduated HS. I hope they value them as much as I do mine even though I was never in the service or an LEO. I have my grandfathers H&R service revolver he carried in the late 40s and 50s as a cop. My father left me many firearms when he passed away (my older brother is a non gun owning martial arts instructor and my older sisters are tree huggers, younger brother is a felon) but my favorite is a S&W 6" Model 28 Highway Patrolman.
