What was your first pistol?

[BRD@66]

4" Hi Std .357 magnum revolver. Circa 1974. Still have it.

eta: Oh wait, Pistol! 1st one was an AMT .380 Backup circa 1981. SWMBO busted her thumb from crossing her thumbs behind the slide & I had to ditch it for $100.

S&W 686 .44 stainless bought NIB in 2000. I still have it.

My dad didn't like pistols too much but loved hunting. He had a similar revolver. I thought he would approve of that pistol since it could be used for hunting.

Ruger Blackhawk .45 convertible, bought at a combination liquor store/gun shop inside Wonderland Mall in San Antonio in 1976 by my father and gifted immediately to me in what today would be considered an obvious straw purchase.

It's 10 feet away from me right now.

Good decision.

Ruger Mark II

YES, I still have it. I’ll never get rid of it. Approximately 30,000 rounds and still going strong. I still enjoy shooting it, whenever I can pry it out of my daughters hands.

[Darkpriest667]

Taurus PT 247 Pro .45 I sold it long ago. It was my duty weapon and after I got out of security I didn't have a need for it. Don't really regret selling it. DO regret selling the two AKs I've owned.
