My first gun was a Nylon 66. My first shotgun was a Remington 1100. Those days are long gone.
I got my 66 for Christmas when I was 8 and I still have it.My first semiauto .22 was a nylon 66. Still have it.
I'd like to say it was my "first gun" but my Granddad bought a Springfield .22 bolt action for me when I was about five. Neighbors had a fit according to my Grandmother. I had a ball.
