Where did you buy your first gun.

I bought my dads Sears & Robuck 12ga pump shot gun. BTW I still have it.

If you can believe it, at a Walgreens in Midland Texas in 1972. A new Remington 870 12 ga. for $180.

My first actual purchase of a firearm was from a local pawn shop in Ark City, KS, a Remington Viper .22 for $100. That was back in 1997. Owned it a year and traded it for a Marlin model 25, which I still have and is one of my favorites to shoot.

I had a couple of guns before then, given to me as gifts for hunting. A .303 British rifle (customized), and a 20 guage shotgun, I still have both of those.

I did not buy my first gun. My dad gave it to me. Model 6 Remington, made in 1920 something. Still have it. Looks like this one:

First gun that I bought was from Sam Fillipo (Sam's Pawn on NW 16th and Portland). It was a F.I.E. import 22 single action. I think it was $50. I shot a bazillion rounds out of it. Traded it off for something or other. I later bought many a gun from Sam. He's a great guy.

Army Surplus (McVay Outfitters now) in Ponca When I was 11 yrs old. My dad had to buy it with money from my savings account.
Mowed lawns all summer. My folks made me put 1/2 of my money into a savings account.
I finally got $20 built up, and bought the H&R single shot .410 that I still have today.
Just in case your wondering, mowing a yard in my day payed $2.50. My grandparents paid $6 for a double lot. Took awhile to accumulate $20.

Fortunatly, things are better now.

My dad gave me a Marlin Model 60 for christmas when I was 11 I think. He gave me a Savage 110 in 30-06 when I was Sixteen. The first one I bought was a grey frame Sigma 40VE. I bought it off a guy I worked with the week I turned 18 in the summer of 97. Still have all of them. The Marlin gets shot more than any of them.

Outdoor America Store in 2004 Glock 23. Back when OSA was more of an appealing place to shop.
