My first was a 1938 tokarev :) loved it to pieces till I shot it to death (didn't know at the time about corrosive ammo)
Given it being before quick interweb info and gettin ma giggity google on. o_O..
still have it ...just alot a bit rusty :p..
 
1996 Beretta 92. Used it as my personal carry in 1997 when we go hit by an IED in Iraq. Shrapnel tore through most of my leg and a piece broke the lower receiver and embedded itself right on top if the Iliac without cutting it. I would have bled out if it wasn't for the 92. This is why plastic guns are for boys. Finally came to terms with buying another 92fs this year.

Only real men affirm their manliness by calling other men boys.
 
My first one was a Norinco 1911A1! Purchased it in spring 2013, 1000 rounds down and no issues to date, still have it in the safe... Although it hasn't been used in months as my m&p9 is my primary!
 
S&W model 28 Highway Patrolmen, 6" barrel, .357. Was LNIB when I bought it in 1981. Box label indicated 1955 made I recall. Owned it a couple years. Big gun for the caliber being an N-frame. Sold it and bought a 1911A1. A friend of a friend owns it I think.
