What was the caliber of the first gun you owned?

.357 Magnum

Urbeti Colt Walker with a 454 lead ball

A sears 22lr semi-auto rifle.

My first was an old Mauser chambered for 308 NATO. The gun store owner said it was Israeli. The receiver crest was worn so bad I couldn't identify the country of origin.

Ruger LCR 357 magnum still got it

First gun I shot was a .22 but the first gun I owned is a .308 Winchester.

First gun I owned was the first gun I bought, Winchester 1300. Practise ammo is cheap, it's extremely versatile, and it's fairly lightweight compared to a rifle. That being said, the first gun I ever shot was a Marlin semi-auto 22lr, I think it was a model 99, had the squirrel engraved on the grip.

20 gauge single shot. Can't even remember what make. Pawn shop special when I was 12, but man was I proud of it

Stevens mod 311 Double barrel in 16 ga. One with the Nylon stock. still have it 51 years later.

My first gun was a 12 ga Mossberg 500 combo with 28" vented rib and 24" rifled slug barrels. I bought it when I was 14 with money from my paper route.

1st gun, 12 gauge Mav 88, still have it.
1st rifle, .22 Savage 64, still have it.
1st handgun, Hi Point .45, sold it, regrettably.

12ga Mossberg. I needed something quick for home defense (wife's ex was apparently coming to town looking for trouble) and Dick's didn't sell handguns.

My first gun was a 12ga Wingmaster. I saved up a year or so for it. I was 12 when I got it.

First handgun was a Ruger RST-6. I was 14.

First handgun I was able to buy without my Dad's permission was a S&W .357 Highway Patrolman, 6" barrel.

First rifle was a used Mark X sporter in 22-250.

First firearm? .22LR (rifle; voted in the poll as such.)

First shotgun? gauge 20.

First handgun? .357 Magnum (learned quickly it should have been .22LR!)

1st gun/caliber that was "mine" was a Ruger 10/22.

1st gun/caliber that "I" bought BHP 9mm

Never sold either.

7.62x54R guess what it was

Winchester Model 62A. Still my go to .22 rifle.

Winchester 70 Classic Sporter LT in 30-06 was the first gun that was "mine" that I shot. However, my father bought my brother and I consecutive serial numbered, unfired, TPD commemorative S&W 66's before we were born.

40 S&W, should have never sold it (hence my username)

I voted 22 LR, but it is actually 22 short/long/long rifle.

Voted Other

30-30 (Marlin 336C)

Mossberg 500 12 gauge.

First gun I ever owned was a G17
