The first I bought was Ruger 10/22. You can learn to shoot with it, learn maintenance, and learn how guns work. Great for target shooting, small game hunting, pest control, and self defense with the right ammo and technique. Inexpensive, customizable, reliable, and well documented. Its hard to beat for a first timer.

For me the first gun hands down is a 22 rifle. The only question is single fire, bolt, or semiautomatic depending on age and maturity. Unfortunately because of the hoarding of ammo that may be hard to do.

My first gun was a Winchester 1894 30WCF (Winchester center fire) or now 30-30 pre 1964. So happy with the purchase and still have it today.

My first gun was a Ruger 10/22 when I was 7 (30+ years ago). Second was a Ruger Mk I Target. Great guns to teach basic marksmanship to anyone, but the absolute best for kids. Thanks for the vids!

these video are so fun to watch, even though i already bought over 10 guns, Im still watching this because these two guys are so entertaining to watch RIP Barry

My 1st hand gun was Taurus 1911. I love this but the prob is I wasn't ready for .45 and Still feel more comfortable with 9mms tha .45

First rifle i bought was a sears and roebuck 30-30. (Basically winchester model 94) bought it at a pawn shop years ago and I still take it with me almost every time I go to the range. Always fun to shoot.

My first gun was a Colt 1991 A1, .45 acp, bought new in '91. Still my favorite. Few years later I got 2 .38 snubbies and a .20 guage pump action shotgun. This is because I was living in Detroit with my girlfriend, and needed fireams we could share. Carried the .38, 20 guage for the apartment.

Great video thank you guys, my first guns are a Taurus 856, Marlin 60, Remington 700 in 270Win.,Remington 870 tactical 12g and a Springfield Xds 45acp.

I've recently ordered my first firearm, a Savage 110 Bolt-Action. My main points to hit were something that I could grow into with practice, bolt-action to space out and make my shots count, and I wanted a reasonably affordable round (308 win) that I would feel the shot more than my buddy's 22.

Ten years later and you're still living up to your original ethics and mode of platform. Y'all really made something nice here. Barry lives on for millions of people now and forever who never would have got the chance to meet him. You're some good friends, guys.

I’d been shooting with .22 rifles all my life through scouts, but I’d only recently bought my first handgun. Through CONSTANT nagging from my friend, I’d walked out with a series 80 Colt 1911. I don’t shoot it as often as I’d prefer, but I really just love the activity of disassembling it, cleaning it up, and putting it back together.

Omg I love Makarov guns I'm a huge fan of them and very impressed to hear you mention them. Thanks for all the great videos

Crazy the difference in options over time. Love these videos with Barry. If you’re here in 2022 looking for a good first gun.. look for an AR15 (palmetto, radical, Springfield, ruger, s&w are good, affordable options) if you just want a nice versatile rifle for life and liberty. or if you’re looking for a handgun for concealed carry glock 43x or the sig p365xl, great size to flex for both home defense and concealed carry :)

I had most of these at one time all great choices I'm a 22 semi auto guy only choice I went the other way on

My first gun was a Ruger 8301, still shoots like a dream. Only issues I have is when I run crap ammo through it, but one of my favorite parts of shooting is cleaning the guns after so that doesn't faze me at all. I like it better than my 10/22 cause I like to shoot subsonic rounds out the back door at squirrels and I don't think the 10/22 would cycle them really well. With a bolt, I never have to worry about any of that.

man the marlin model 60 was my first gun and i loved it. never had a problem with it. i was 14 when i got it so taking it apart for a complete cleaning was never a problem for me. now i feel like i need another one. thanks for the trip down memory lane.

My first gun, as soon as I turned 21, was a S&W stainless steel.357 Magnum with 4-inch barrel. Surprisingly, the recoil wasn't that noticeable for me despite what my friends warned me about. Heavy as hell but I loved it and in hindsight, I hate that I sold it.

Well hopefully you already figured this out but i imagine there’s at least an indoor range somewhere close by. If not it’s definitely worth finding the closest public range or public land you can legally practice. Even if you have to travel a bit to practice it’s definitely worth the time invested. After all, what’s your life worth?

First firearm was an Anderson AM-15 when I was 19. Anderson's M4 clone for $500. 1:8 barrel, carbine length gas system, and it works. Just picked up an M44 Mosin.

My first gun I bought a couple days ago. A 1939 Mosin Nagant. Absolutely in love with it and super cheap to shoot! Surplus ammo is very cheap(440 rounds for about $97 shipping and all) but it is corrosive so you have to clean right after shooting so it doesn't rust but really can't go wrong with it. It seems like a lot of people start with this gun and I don't blame them at a 7.62x54R round it's perfect for hunting or just taking to the range to shoot. At a price of $154 it's also a great buy as well too!

First gun I bought (inherited others) was a mosin nagant followed my a CZ 75

Mine was a marlin 22 bolt action when I was 5 still have it 9 years later and it works perfect very smooth and broke in.

I just bought my first gun: a Springfield Armory XD-9 Mod. 2. I wanted something good on which to learn and was told 9mm's are a great choice. I wanted a reasonable cost of ammunition and price point between $350-$450. I also wanted something to carry concealed if I ever decided I wanted to. Just as in my business life whether I'm bidding or pricing, I never take the cheapest or most expensive option. Usually the best value is found somewhere in between. Finally, I made the decision based on how it felt in my hand. The critical factor was that I felt it was easier for me to eject the magazine on the SA, more so than the other manufacturers. I practiced dry firing in my living room and learned all I could by myself and didn't even load the gun until I was in a beginning safety course. Now I have been to the range a couple times by myself and plan to take a LTC class in the near future. As of September 1, 2017, the price of applying for a LTC in Texas will decrease from $140 to $40. I'll gladly wait the 86 days as of this writing. $100 is $100, after all. I still have no idea if I'll actually carry, but at least I'll have the option.

My first firearm was a bolt action .300 win mag and my second was a S&W 500. Needless to say I developed a flinch pretty quick, then picked up a 5.56 bullpup and a 9mm. Wish I would have bought those first but they helped me get rid of my flinch.

“Sling it clear across the room” 😂😂

“Mp15 starting at $1,300 and it’s just going to go up in value”😂😂😂

First gun I bought was when I turned 18, went and bought me a ruger 10/22 takedown with the threaded bull barrel, such a fun plinking gun, and it’s not bad on the eyes either. Threw a little red dot on it and I couldn’t be happier. I’m 20 now and am hoping on getting a Henry big boy 357 carbine soon

My first was a 686+ 3 inch. Love it, still have it. Carried it for a while, it was definitely practical as at the time I was really into country kayaking. It was able to handle hard cast 357 or 38 shot shells. Great gun. But in my opinion any 357/38 double action revolver or a 9 mm duty style pistol is the way to go. Something fairly cheap and easy to shoot but also something that can be reliable used in the self-defense environment.

Mine, Ruger Mark IV 22. Great baby step into guns. Inexpensive to shoot, easy to clean when you figured out that crazy pin on back of grip. Felt a little sheepish going to gun range as a big guy telling them all I had was .22, but clerk and several others said great way to learn.

I have a 20g Mossberg, 30.06 Remington, and a Ruger SR9C. Received the first two from my dad for hunting. Bought the 3rd for myself last year.

Hi guys, I just wanted to say that I really enjoy your videos, my first gun I bought was a Ruger P95. Loved it, it has had a few issues, but all minor. I recommend it for first time buyers. I was wondering since y'all are located in Georgia, where is your shop located? I would like to come check it out. Thanks

410 shotgun from Sears I love that shotgun

my first gun was a classic looking mini-14, i was always a fan of military rifles, m1s, m1 carbine, m14, m16, and the mini 14 reminded me so much of the garande and it was alot like a m14 carbine i love it, its been reliable for years, its a 94 or 95 model its pretty old and runs like a champ

Good recommendations on the S&W M&P-15. The Century AK's get a bad rap, many of them are better than most people are willing to give credit for. I have a Century RPK that will accurately (for an AK) send rounds downrange every trigger pull... it flat out runs and bump fires unbelievably well.

Right! a persons very first firearm should be a .22 caliber rifle. But, not a semi-auto. It should be what I was taught on at age 9, a single-shot, bolt action with a separate cocking piece on the bolt, a kid-sized Winchester and a full-sized Stevens. ( I also own a kid-sized falling-block, an early 20th Century Stevens, with a heavy trigger, and a large external hammer, that has to be cocked.) BEFORE you do any actual shooting, you MUST be taught to handle guns safely, by someone who knows MORE about it than YOU do, until the safety precautions become second-nature, and are followed with absolute consistency. Only THEN should you be taught to actually shoot, and only after plenty of shooting with the .22, should you try your hand at larger calibers and more complex actions. Great site. Keep it up.

My first gun was a Savage mark II, a .22lr bolt action with a 4x32mm scope, costing $250. I love it, easy to clean, easy to use, and good groupings.

I agree with you there. I learned how to shoot a rifle with my dad's 10/22. And I learned how to handle a handgun both revolvers and semiautomatic with my uncles Ruger and 1911. I'm teaching my 4 year old daughter with an unloaded air rifle and spring pistol. I know that I know that I know they are unloaded because I bought them from the store and never put anything in them. And even she learns the safety aspect of it I'll let her actually put bbs downrange

And then there is Australia :(, *We can't get most of the good guns*

+TekkitCast somewhat true, though if you persist and get your Cat A & B license you can still own many cool guns. Yes semi auto rifles, semi auto and pump action shotguns and handguns are restricted, but that does leave bolt, lever action and pump action rifles (yes there is that discrepancy between pump action rifles and shotguns). I consider my Remington 7600 Police in .308 with 10 rnd mags a 'good gun', or the several bolt action and lever actions I own 'good guns', and now that I have spent the money on getting my IAC M-87 lever action shotgun reliable it is a 'good gun'. Just because the asshole Government has placed restriction on firearm ownership doesn't preclude you from doing your best to maintain ownership. Play their game, be politically active and try to get the fucking hoplophobic laws repelled.

+Orion Can get an AR15 here in NZ when it has a thumbhole stock and no bayonet lug, not allowed High cap magazine either but you can get it on your standard licence. However it's restricted by cost, 3600 dollars really stops people from buying them unless you are a real enthusiast. But you can get the kind of rig here: www.trademe.co.nz/sports/hunting-shooting/rifles/centrefire/auction-1038682913.htm

mobstamaniac yeah mate I have often looked at the gear NZ'ers can get, to be honest it makes me quite depressed. High capacity mags are great, but I am not that upset about our 10 rnd (cat A license) or 15 rnd mag limit (for Cat B) restrictions, I have rarely emptied my mag out while hunting and if you have few mags (I have 4 KKK 10 rnd mags for my Remington 7600, along with 2 factory 4 rnd mags) a simple mag change keeps you shooting.

my first gun that I owned is a mossberg 835 ulti mag 12 gauge I got when I was 17 and the first gun I bought was a remington 783 in 308, both very excellent guns I service them regularly and they are worth the money.

Maks are great for CC, my first gun will be the CAI C39v2 AK, and a Ruger 10/22 Semi with a Bullpup conversion kit.

I always suggest a 22 either bolt action rifle or 4 inch 22 revolver. =)

It'll kill them, but you shouldn't. They never carry rabies (seriously, like single digit number of cases in history, ever), they help get rid of carrion, they aren't mean enough to pose much threat to dogs, cats, etc., they eat literally thousands of ticks each every season, and they tend to run other, more harmful vermin off. If they're not directly causing you problems somehow, you should leave opossums alone.

Great video guys. As I live in the UK, a shotgun license is easier to get hold of than a firearms certificate, so the first gun I owned was a 12 gauge over and under. I'm looking to get a firearms certificate soon, so I think the first rifle I'll get will be a 10/22 ruger. Thanks for the advice

My first gun was a Yankee hill machine ar-15.. I love it!! Up to 6 guns now all within a year..

First gun should be a .22lr rifle, since you should be 18 buying your first gun and need something cheap to practice with.

maybe a carbine (stuff that shoots pistol calibers).

everybody's first gun should be a shotgun hands down.

Great video. A funny anecdote, I submitted a question on Yahoo answers once asking if I should take the advice of a friend who purportedly recommended a Macmillan Tac 50 as a first time gun purchase. The results were hilarious, and I only wish I still had the log of that discussion because it got a lot of attention.

I have a 15-22 s&w and its great! you can take it apart so easily.

first long gun's: Browning bps gold label 20ga pump( was a Christmas resent ages ago) Ruger SR556 AR (bought with my own money). First pistol: Ruger SR1911 .45 caliber 5" barrel

My 1st gun (9yrs old) was a Mossberg 142C 22rimfire. Ate a whole lot of rabbits and squirrels over the years.

that was EXACTLY their plan. THEY ARE DOING THE SAME THING RIGHT NOW IN CALIFORNIA WITH EUROPE AS THEIR MODEL. They tell us, "look how safe europe is, we need to take things away from you for the good of the people". IF YOU TOOK OUT EVERY SHOOTING DONE BY GANGBANGER THUG FUCKS WE WOULD HAVE LESS SHOOTINGS THAN CANADA. Since they cannot outright confiscate firearms they are doing the next best thing: MAKE IT TOO FUCKING EXPENSIVE AND EXCLUSIVE. you have to feel like an expert with lots of income to enjoy shooting sports.

My first rifle for shooting was a Marlin model 60 with a 2-7x20mm tasco scope (not great but does okay). My first hunting rifle is a Mossberg 800a in .308. Came with a Bushnell Banner 3-9x32mm with a 50-250 yard adjustment turret made it a lot easier to sight in. The first rifle I am going to buy is a DPMS Tac 20. I like the .308 and I like the AR platform. I was looking at the Classic DPMS .308 but since it had the old school M16 grip and I like a quad rail the extra $100 is going to be well spent. Plus a 20" barrel is nice and I plan to use it as my primary rifle.

My first gun was given to me at the age of 15 and it was a marlin .22 semi auto. I only shot it once unfortunately and then it was stored away. I really need to bring it out, clean it, and shoot it. My first gun that i bought myself is a .357 and i love it. I shoot it every week if i can or every two weeks.
