So what's the first handgun you ever owned?

[dorm]

Go back.... wayyyyy back.....

Maybe it was a matter of foresight; my first pistol was a Browning 1910 in .32 ACP (on left). Little did I know it had a soon to be prohib barrel and was in a soon to be prohib calibre! Many years later after C68 was passed, as a matter of protest, I bought its newer and younger brother (on right).

My first revolver was a S&W 586. I purchased this about a week after I bought the 1910. I should have realized then that i had a problem.

I still have these guns and shoot them.

I got a Stainless Browning Buckmark in .22LR, the one with the heavy barrel. I was going to buy a 1911 later that month, and wanted some experience with a lower powered pistol before I moved up into a center-fire cartridge.
