When did you first get interested in firearms?

[cardguy]

My fascination with firearms was when I was about 10 years old. That's 60 years ago. My first rifle was a Remington bolt action. My first pistol was a Ruger 22 auto n the same time period at 18 years old. I took off running with the love of shooting and guns after that and I haven't slowed down at all. I have to drive almost 40 miles to the range in Ames, Ia and I've been doing that for 45 years.

I'm not, 1-800-flowers for my new sweetheart!

Hmmmmmmm….Bawanna or me?

I paid $11.95 for it new over 60 years ago. Anyway, since it was my first gun, not counting BB guns, I wouldn't sell it. If I polish off a little surface rust off the bolt, it will be almost like new.

In your sandals I'd never sell it either. Those bolts polish up real pretty I discovered on my last old Mossberg. Ended up doing them all.
It's in fine shape, should be out where folks can enjoy looking at it.

I didn't mean to hold back from you but I've crossed over.

I'm crushed!!

It pained me terribly to hear you crushed, so I cut my hair, tossed my ladies undergarments and crossed back over where I belong. And no more track for me.

Are we good again? PULEEEEZE.
