What was your first handgun, and do you still own it?

Bersea series 95 when they had just come out, bought it at the now gone Sports Unlimited in Knoxville.

Shot it most recently about four weeks ago, still not my most favorite shooter because of the very short single action mode trigger but a good gun.

In my life I've sold one gun which I don't regret since it came from a person with a domestic assault on his record and shouldn't have had it and there was no telling what its history was. He brought it to me to ten years ago to try and settle up a $1000 debt lol, I knew I'd never see the cash so I took it. Was a little chrome Jennings 25, never even shot it was a little scared to with its condition, sold it to someone for $50 a week later.

Had three stolen, everything else I still own.

My father in law gave me my first pistol. It's a Raven M25 with a chrome finish. He used to keep it under his floor mat in his VW Beetle convertible he had restored. I only shot one box through it and put it away in the safe deposit box with some extra ammo. However, that little pistol started my chronic gun-buying addiction and many more have followed!

Mine was a G-17 that I bought from a LEO in Nashville. It's was my 1st and last Glock! I'm not saying this as a blast on the Glock's. They just are not for me! I traded that G for a S&W 686 that I still have.
