18th I bought a couple of m1 carbines and on my 21st I bought a couple of Garands-I still have them and I'm 45 now![]()
Bought a Winchester Model 94 in .30-30 on my 18th birthday. Still my favorite gun to shoot!
Bought a Glock 19 on the 21st. I've probably put 4-5k rounds through it and it still shoots as good as ever.

on my 18th I bought a 870 express at Kmart iirc it was around $200.00, I still have and use it. I've bought several shotguns since, it is still my fav.
I bought my first 22 rifle from a dealer (good 'ol Western Auto) right after my 18th. Found a private seller and got my first handgun, a Ruger MkII, at 19.

I went to Firing Line for their Summer sale after I'd turned 21, intending to get a Super Blackhawk. They were gone, but I got a great deal (yeah, from Firing Line) on a P85. Still have it.
