    $20 for a Baby Browning 25 caliber that a friend sold me to protect myself after I was stabbed and robbed on my paper route in North Minneapolis in 1963. I was 12 years old. I carried that pistol all through high school. I wish I knew where that little gun is. I lost it when I got the letter from Uncle Sam in 1970.

    I bought a xd9 for $429 a couple of years ago. Just in time for their annual gear up program. Hope the xds 9mm is out by this winter so I get the free mags again..

    My first handgun was a Glock 19 and I think I paid exactly $50 and a case of beer for it. Apparently it was a gift from a friend of mine's ex girlfriend and when she went he figured the gun needed to go to!

    My first newly purchased handgun was a S&W M&P 9mm and I paid $499.99 for it before tax.

    I bought my first handgun for $25.00 from a lady that just wanted to get rid of it. It was a Browning .25 auto.

    Smith & Wesson 637, box of ammo, cheapie IWB holster, cleaning kit, and a pack of targets...OTD (out the door) @ $300.

    Shopped by myself. Was pushed/scared into buying something that wouldn't ever jam...

    And then it did.

    Gotta give props to S&W, though... excellent customer service.
