Oldest Gun vs You

[dugsagun]

Ha, I thought my oldest gun was my savage 99 308 made in 55'. After opening the gun safe and finally dating my marlin 336 30-30 , its actually older as it was made in 50'. Yah learn something new every day, heh. I was made in 75'.

 

[RustyHornet]

My oldest is a K98 Mauser which dates to 1940. I date to 1992, that makes my Mauser 52 years older than me!

 

[Fordtough25]

Oldest I have currently is my M1, from May of '45.
I'm from '80
Oldest gun i've had is probably a mosin nagant from 1938. My brother has a Luger from 1918.

 

[Glockowner]

I hunt with a '69 Python, I was born 5 yrs before it was made.

Very cool. Never seen anyone 'yote hunting with a pistol.

 

[ERyanH]

Ones bought by ourselves or ones we have inherited or does it matter?

I date 1991

Just bought a CZ-52 dated 1953, 38yrs older.

Oldest gun dates 1841. Its an Old Flintlock pistol.

That means its 150yrs older than me.

 

[Vaquero11]

Mosin Nagant 1939, me 1969 = 30 years

Im surprised how many ppl from the 90's are on here... Glad to see there is younger a lot of the next generation into gun though

Very cool. Never seen anyone 'yote hunting with a pistol.

Thanks. That and another had been ruining our early bow season efforts so we took a day off to call 'em 20-25 yards on the move, she jumped about 5 ft in the air and flipped, hit the ground running and fell over dead after sprinting maybe 20 yards. Unfortunately the bullet tore up 3 spots and ruined my rug

That gun shoots VERY well, so 50 yards and in it'll work for just about anything

 

[Pointman]

1917 Enfield ShtLE mk III* - 51 years older.

 

[88E30M50]

Our oldest is a Colt 1903 that was built in 1908. Next one after that is a Westinghouse built Mosin Nagant from 1917.

Me? I'm a '63 model Pittsburgher built from European sourced parts.

 

[pudly]

Don't have anything terribly old. My oldest is a 1981 H&R .22 revolver. Younger than I am and in better shape.

 

[Clay319]

The best I can do is my 1892 Winchester 44-40 made about 1895. I'm 53 so I guess that is only 58 years older.

Almost all of mine are significantly older than I am.

The oldest of which is a Savage Model 19, produced some time in the 1920s.

Until I finish my latest build, my "newest" one is a 1948.

Compared to me, I'm a 1980's model.
