[QUOTE="Hirschkopf, post: 4013187, member: 50724"] Yes; I do. First rifle was/is a Ruger 10/22 I received for Christmas in 1974. It has a 0X Weaver scope (probably about 15 mm), that I probably bought at Alco with paper-route and mowing money. I still have the first rifle I ever shot (inherited from my father); it’s a Winchester Model 67 .22 single shot. I’ve probably put more rounds through that little rifle than any other firearm. As a kid, I used to use .22 short or CB caps to snipe European Starlings and sparrows for my cats. I’ve only ever parted ways with one firearm. My first pistol was a Ruger Mark II standard. I traded it for a Competiton Target Model with a 2.5-4X Leopold scope in 1992. Have a few really old firearms. I should ask my dad where he got them. The only one I know the history on is the Ruger .22 LR my maternal grandfather carried to shoot jackrabbits and rattle snakes. Best I can tell, it is a K-22 Outdoorsman made in the 30s. [/QUOTE]
