My first was a Remington .22 clip fed bolt action on Christmas in 1958 because I would be 10 in three more weeks. I and my three brothers had a lot of fun with that rifle. For whatever reason, my two younger brothers are now anti's but my older brother is still an avid shooter. That rifle was a great learning tool and my Dad always said that a BB gun was much too dangerous in the hands of a kid and as far as this "kid" is concerned, he was right.... I may not have respected a BB gun he way I respected that .22
About ten years ago I donated the .22 to the Andover Sportsmen's Club for their youth shooting program.
