First one that I actually owned was my F.I.E. Titan .25. Purchased in 1979 from Mr. Wiggs department store, Wooster, Ohio for $49.95.

My first Handgun was a .22 revolver pot metal spit lead it went by by real quick. My first real handgun was a 1903 Colt .32 auto That I still have and always will.

My first handgun I bought on my own was a Beretta .25 ACP in the late 80's. I still have it and it's got plenty of miles on it. It spent a couple years in my briefcase when I worked in a not so good part of town. It's lived in my pocket off and on for many years. My dad even carried it in his pocket for a while. It's still a fun little gun to shoot but needs the springs replaced.

My first handgun was an Erma LA22 .22 semiauto. My grandfather bought it for "killing rattlesnakes" when they moved out from Wisconsin. I still have the original .22 crimped shotshells he bought with it. Possible picture later.

Hi Flamedcraig, Here is A picture of my COLT 1903 32ACP. About 50 years ago I did a hot blue job on it. Who ever carred it back then wore all the bluing off of it.

Sroeger Luger 22LR. Bought at Dillards in late 60's (I think) for around 50 bucks. Fun to shoot but not terribly accurate. I need to get it out again.
