Give a man a gun and he can rob a bank.....give a man a bank and he can rob the world!.
More than a vested interest in 7.62x54r!

I voted yes but... I only purchased my first rifle two weeks ago so not really a true representation

Re: Who here still has the first gun they ever bought?
Not one I bought, but I really miss the .22lr 8-shot 1936 Burgo revolver I had when I was 14. I swapped a frisbee for it.

Re: Who here still has the first gun they ever bought?
First gun I ever bought....bought new about 12 years ago, my Ruger 10/22 is still happily taking up cabinet space, and will never be sold
First gun bought for me.... 33 years ago a .177 Webley Tempest from my Mum and Dad, long sold for fag money when I was 15(ish). I still really appreciate them buying it for me as they were both very non-gun friendly (still are!) but they knew it was something I had set my heart on....

Had a lovely Webley Junior with a hair trigger - not sure where it went but it diappeared without trace.

The first 12 guns I bought with my own money were semi auto centre fire and pistols...

In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?
