My first was a Ruger Mk2 5.5" bull barrel. Bought it used when I was 16. Dad signed the papers so legally it was his. I put about a zillion rounds through that gun before it was stolen. It was recovered 14 years later....in the woods right at the edge of my yard where it was apparently dropped! :banghead: It`s rusted so baddly that the frame is almost rotted through and the bolt is one with the reciever. I still have it though,it sits on display on a shelf right above my computer desk. Marcus
