What was your first gun you ever purchased?

A 22 Stoeger Luger pistol from Oshmans at Perimeter Mall $79.99 + tax. 1st rifle was a Remington 600 in 243 at ACE hardware in Dunwoody $100 + $3 tax. 1972 and 1973

Stoeger Luger was my first too. Bought it in 1973 at Bergner's Dept. Store in Peoria Illinois, four years later bought my wedding bands there too. I regret selling it every day.

Now if I could just remember where I bought it...
 
Around 1960. An Eastern arms 20 gauge double barrel shotgun. Had a plastic stock.
First thing I did was took it in to Bradley the gunsmith in Savannah, had him cut the barrels to 18 1/8 inch and re-install a brass bead sight. My first truck gun.
Lost it when my step-dad ’’borrowed’’ it one day and it got ’’stolen’’ out of his truck. More likely he pawned it for drug money.
