Marlin Glenfield Model 60. I saved up my money and bought it from KMart probably 1975ish. Actually my dad bought it, it was his first straw purchase.
What was your first .22 rimfire?

If there’s ever a civil war, there’ll be a remarkable number of tube fed Marlins zinging lead across the countryside.
Winchester Model 190 semi-auto .22 for Christmas when I was 11 years old. I still have it.
A chipmunk that as I understand it is marketed under a different name now. Bolt action and it has a broken extractor so If anyone knows the other name mine needs fixin...
If I ever have a girl, she's gettin one of these:

ah shit - this is MD, can't have one of these "dangerous weapons of war" on the streets. That would be illegal

Remmy speedmaster. Late 80’s model, matte finish.
cousins had same thing but blued finish and 10-15y older. But I really liked that classic semi.
Had it out a couple weeks ago and the wife and son were doing the target shooting! That was. Really nice day with the family. Pretty accurate considering the junk scope is the cheapo I got when I bought the gun.

old Savage 6A probably from the late 30's or early to mid 40's.. My biological father gave it to me a few years ago. He hunted squirrels a lot. In great shape and is a great shooter. Barrel stamped Utica, NY, prior to their move to MA. It just works..
Yup! Another Stevens bolt action with a (5 round?) magazine. It was certainly every bit as accurate as any human who picked it up to shoot it. Still is! I'm getting a little verklempt, thinking back all those years.

You probably know this , but its a rebranded Ithica .
Marlin Glenfield Model 25.
A gift from my parents years ago. My first rimfire, first rifle and second firearm.
Lots and lots of memories in that .22 rifle! Just shot it last week! Still shoots as well as it ever did. Gone is the old 4x15 scope that was never much, but it served a kid's purposes in it's time. The old rifle wears a whole lot more clarity nowadays!

Remington 511, a birthday present from my mother. Lots of good memories there.

Never got handed down to me, but my goto as a kid was my dad's Remington 511 Scoremaster. Got stolen around 81 or 82 by the local crackhead on a break in.
It was a Sears and robucks semi that is tube fed with a “ compensator” looking thing on the end and with thin slots cut in it and matching cuts in the tin that is opposite and on top of the chamber
Grandad gave it to me when I grew out of my red Ryder, I was maybe 6-7
No model number or serial number on it just the sears and robucks name and address
It was kinda older when he gave it to me nearly 50 years ago, it’s around here somewhere or maybe I putbit outta state, I can’t really remember

The first .22 rimfire I shot was my Dad's Westernfield bolt action.
The first .22 rimfire I owned was a 6" Smith & Wesson Model 17. It was a college graduation gift from my parents. My degree was in law enforcement and Dad thought it would allow me cheap practice, must have worked, my first qualification score when I got hired with the Federal Protective Service was 298/300.
The first one I ever bought was a Ruger 10/22.
.....and yes, we still have all of them.

I'm noticing a fairly consistent pattern here that most of us still have our first .22.
And where did you get a Ruger 12/22? Mine was only 10 shot
