I was allways interested in shooting. From when I was about 6 or 7 I watched cowboy and indian TV shows, and movies and was really interested in shooting. Luckly, both my parrents were conservative and let me have my first gun, a Montgomery Wards .410 single shot shotgun, at the tender age of 8. I loved it. Bought my first gun with my own money, of course had my Mom sign for it, a Marlin Golden 39A at 10 years old. Got my first handgun a Colt Dimondback at 12 but had to sell the 39A to get it.
I didn't shoot much other than a few hunts and a bunch of plinking outtings till I was about 16. At that point I went shooting with a man named Res Bradley, an Ex Marine who was on the pistol team in the 40s.
He had a couple of 1911s and a K38. I shot all of them but it was him, and the 1911's that really got me into a life of shooting and guns.
