first gun was a Crossman bb/pellet gun at around.Took my dad's bolt 22 shooting at a friedns cabin a few times around 12-13.Around 14 started going hunting and skeet/trap shooting with my dad, and joined a smallbore competition group at the local gun club. Around 16 my uncle gave me his Mossberg bolt .410 he got when he was 13, but that had been at my dads house for around 15 years and I started going hunting alone with that. At 18, bought my first gun, a Ruger Blackhawk .357 mag.
