    Mine was as Savage Model 4C bolt action. Probably made in the 30's or 40's. I paid $13 for it from Baker's Gunsmithing in Bucks County PA back in 1976. Still have the receipt and of course the gun.

    Ruger 10/22 in kryptek typhon camo and stainless barrel. I did things backwards, getting my first .22 after almost 15 years of gun ownership.

    Im sure it was one of the vintage mossberg .22's. I collected many of them over the years, sold some off recently but still have a bunch in the safe. They really are great rifles

    Marlin Glenfield Model 60. Still have it. Just as accurate as the day I purchased it new from Best Products in Towson. It was $49. Has had a ton of bricks of rounds run through it. Only problem was the nylon buffer crumbled from being shot so much.

    Remington Mohawk .22.

    Factory magazine works great. Aftermarket - not so much.

    Winchester 1885 Low Wall in .22 short with 4" hacksawed off the barrel and 3" off the stock to shorten the length of pull to fit my 8 or 10 year old arms it would keyhole a bullet in 50 feet, but it was mine! I still have the gun.

    British Enfield MK4 (?) .22 caliber conversion. My father purchased it thru Sears catalog in 1961 for my 9th birthday. If I remember correctly, it was $11.00 and delivered thru the mail.
