Other than a Daisy Eagle BB gun that I got for my 8th birthday......My first purchase was a 9 shot .22 revolver that I bought from a friend in 1961. He brought it to school in a brown paper bag and it went home with me the same way. We were in 7th grade. We still keep in touch, but he has a "bad" character flaw now.......he likes Winchester 101s. I keep telling him, "barrels do not belong on top of one and other!"
Things were different back then!
