I had been shooting since I was 10 but the first gun that I used that made me "fall in love" was the kimber 1911. AFter that I had to have a 1911 and practice with it often.

A 22 rifle...I believe it was a Marlin and I was about 7 years old. I remember it like it was yesterday. We were out shooting turtles in a stock tank.

A 38 when I was about 5. My favorite is a 1911.

First gun ive ever fired was a some sort of .22 LR single shot bolt action rifle my dad had when I was around the age of 7. Best feeling in the world.

When I was 6 and my brother was 4, my Dad got us .22's for Christmas and took us rabbit hunting! Jack rabbits had a 10 cent bounty on them, and if we got enough to pay for gas, we got to go the next week end! Made us both shoot straight and true! We ate lots of cotton-tails every winter! Precious memories!
