What was your first Handgun? - Page 11

Toole · 07-16-2008

My first gun was a Jimenez Arms 9mm that I couldn't get more than 2-3 shots off without a FTL or FTE, that lasted 2 days, then I got the Taurus PT 24/7 PRO .40, then traded that in on the G23 a few weeks later.

It was either the FIE Titan (Tanfoglio .25) or the Helwan Brigadier (Beretta 951 licensed copy,) I really can't recall now. Eighteen years ago. The little Tanfoglio is still around (great little gun if you have a use for a .25) but the Helwan is long gone... and that's okay.

Mine was a Norinco 213-A, hi-cap 9mm. Great shooting gun, just never did fully trust it. Recently used it for trade fodder.

It was a toss up, I bought 2 at the same time. A Llama IX .45 (a cheap 1911 clone) and an S&W model 66 .357 mag with 2 in. barrel and round butt.
