First one I bought is my CZ SP01 Shadowline and I bought a Ruger Mark 3 target so shortly after that I brought them home from the gun shop together. That was a very happy day :)
 
Smith and Wesson 422 with 6" barrel. Loved it, still haven't had as accurate a pistol with ANYTHING I FED IT. I ended up replacing it after I sold it a few years later with a S & W 622 . I just love those light little pistols.
 
Ive always wanted a 1911, and I was proud to buy it as my first gun.

Remington R1, I like to keep it simple, nothing fancy
 
Pair of "snubby" traveller's pistols. Made in Belgium, complete with folding triggers and rifled turn-off barrels for quick reloads. Oh yeah ... and they're original percussions. (Am I dating myself here? :cool:)
 
I first owned a Tanfogio GT22T briefly back in the mid eighties. It was a disappointment, and I sold it and got a Model 41 Smith instead.
 
S&W mod 19 bought new June 29, 1974. I missed the FAC/PAL changeover, let my FAC lapse and when I got my PAL I had no 12(6) status and had to sell it. I still feel violated.
 
I have been unable to find any 500 ammo as of yet, so have unfortunately not shot the 500 yet. I have the dies, powder and components and am just awaiting a friends expertise on reloading, and his press.
