Red Ryder BB gun at age 5. My cousin who was a good 6 months older taught me how to put the top of the post level with the bottom of the notch. I could get the windage OK, but it took me a year to figure out why the elevation was so wrong.

Later, it was a Mossberg .22.

My first owned gun was a Remington 512 that I got for Christmas the year when I was 9. I still own that gun and it looks like new, refinished twice. It sports a Redfield 3-9 scope.

My first purchased gun was a Ruger Single Six converatable that I traded Dick Riley out of while I was in high school. Dick of Hookset, New Hampshire would later become the President of the NRA. I still have that well worn Ruger and the original holster I bought for it. The belt has shrunk a bit though.

Both 22 RF guns have gone with me over many a fence and rock wall.
Best,
Ed
