Dad started me at 3 with a BB gun that looked like an M1 Carbine. You pushed the barrel into the stock to 'cock' the spring then worked the bolt to put a BB in. That thing finally disintegrated when I was in Jr. High.
First rifle that was 'mine' was a Savage 243. Followed by a Mohawk 600 in 243. I still have the Savage and my grandson is using the 600.

All in all, 54 years.
