    Marlin model 60. Gave it to a friend. He was a nongun guy. Until he moved out in the woods and stuff started to try and come in the house. Now he is a very good shot and progun. He hates to admit it though. I may have to trade him out of it. I never really thought of it as my first rifle before.

    First rifle I ever owned was a Crossman Powermaster BB/pellet gun in the '60's. First one I purchased was a Marlin, bolt action .22 with a Weaver scope. bought in the early '70's.

    My first rifle was a shotgun! Well, actually it was both. It was a Savage (or maybe Stevens) .22/.410 over/under. Traded very soon for a Remington .22 bolt action with a scope.
