[QUOTE="MCVetSteve, post: 2573318, member: 33591"] I suppose I have two "most sentimental" firearms. The 1st is a Rossi model 62sa, winchester 62 copy, little tube feed pump .22 S,L,LR. It was my stepdad's, he got it so he could teach me how to shoot when I was 12. He never actually gave it to me, I moved out shortly after that to live with my father and stepmom many states away, and he passed shortly after I joined the Marine Corps at 17. Ten years later (earlier this year) I was in FL visiting my mother with my little girl in tow. And I went into my mother's gun safe to clean the guns she cared about, cuz she never does. And I grab that one and she tells me Molly (my daughter) can have it. So it's not even mine actually, now that I've got two kids it's theirs. The 2nd is the 1st pistol I ever bought with my money. It was a "gift from my mother" that I paid for, I was 18 at the time. It's a full size Springfield 1911-A1 two tone, lightweight. It's not pretty, but it shoots reasonably well and it'll feed and eject everything that I put in it. It's my EDC gun. [/QUOTE]
