I love your Guns! Unfortunately, in my country the laws do not allow me to own a full-fledged handgun...
Got my first pistol at 15, a S&W snubby kit gun, pretty sure it was a model 34I love your Guns! Unfortunately, in my country the laws do not allow me to own a full-fledged handgun...
I grew up in a rural area, and everybody I knew hunted, but I can't remember anyone having a handgun. The first handgun I ever shot was an old 1911 at Marine boot camp in 1966. And it was love at first shot.Got my first pistol at 15, a S&W snubby kit gun, pretty sure it was a model 34

I think our 1911s were the same ones that my Dad trained with when he went through boot camp there in 1941. They were sloppy loose, but I don't remember any of them not working when you pulled the trigger. Of course, that was a long time ago, and my memory may be......uhhh...... selective.Very cool, thank you for your service to our Country, sir!
I was a 95Bravo in the Army, couldn't hit the the broadside of a barn with my issued 1911, it was a rattle trap...Haha. However, my M16 was like a laser guided missile in my hands.
