My first was a taurus pt99. i got it in 87 or 88 when i was 9 or 10. i absolutely loved lethal weapon, and wanted a beretta like riggs'. mom and dad could afford the taurus a lot more easily. all these years later, i still have it, and am still in love with it.
Ruger Redhawk .41 Rem. Magnum with 7 1/2" barrel in blue. Bought it when Indiana started allowing Deer hunting with a handgun. Wish I still had it! Took a total of three deer with it using iron sights. Recently replaced it with a Ruger Redhawk .44 Rem. Magnum with 7 1/2" blue barrel Hunter model with Simons 2X6 scope. Very nice hunting guns. Very accurate, hunting handguns.
Taurus pt92. Loved that gun, but had to sell it for gas money back home from Colorado, and wasn't comfortable in my early 20s transporting it across 5 states.
