    I can post on my thread now, because I got my first handguns (a single stack subcompact and a double stack compact ) today!

    I was so excited I went from the police station to the gun shop and then the range!

    Next license I'm waiting for is another handgun and then I might start looking at getting a long gun after sufficient practice and training with my SD handgun..

    Depends very much on the individual. If you want a gun for hunting, you'll get a rifle. If you want a gun for SD, you'll get a pistol.

    I inherited a 22 rifle and 22 target pistol. From there I went on to buy more .22 rifles and a shotgun.

    I only got a real handgun when it looked like the best option for sportshooting in my area.

    Got a G17c first. The c because it seemed awesome to a teenager. I then bought a hunting rifle. 7x64. Recently added a Shadow and a G43. The two is one and one is none motto.

    First gun was an SD/sport gun. More geared to sport but couldn't afford Tupperware at the time so carried it while saving up. Bought my first proper SD gun less than a year later and purchased a BRNO 22 from my dad just over 2 years ago. Last purchase was a target rifle, next purchase will be another target rifle and a hunting rifle thereafter, if all goes to plan.
