My first handgun purchase was in 1960 @ age 16.
(Not the first handgun I possessed, but the first I bought with my own money)
Purchased at the local Sears Roebuck store.
I had to choose (My saved-up $ were limited) between a new Browning SA .22lr rifle @ $68.00 and a new Hi-Standard Citation .22lr pistol for $ 79.00. I went home with my first handgun. Kept it for many years until a burglar took it away in 1993, if I recall correctly.
Best,
Will
