I still have the receipt.My first was a S&W model 66-2 with a 6" barrel, my dad finally agreed to let me have a pistol. Purchased it from Chuck's Firearms back in 6/25/1982.
That tells you how old I am.![]()
That was my first handgun also. Was working at Western Auto in Macon while attending high school. Ended giving it to my mother-in-law for protection as she lived alone in rural South Georgia. That was almost 50 years ago. I picked up its twin on ODT a couple of years ago. Good memories with that old revolver, squirrel hunting and rat shooting at the dump.My first handgun was a High Standard Sentinel .22, 9 shot revolver, 6" barrel. I bought it while in college, and mostly used it for plinking. Good gun, but I wanted better, and sold it to a friend for money to buy an S&W. Looking at what they sell for now, I probably should have kept it.
