[QUOTE="Rob L., post: 2776091, member: 120811"] I did something similar. I was 10 in 1960 and the corner gas station that also sold guns and auto parts had the .22 Remington Nylon 66 semi-auto for sale for $49 bucks. We bought all our gas and dad's cigarettes there and they knew us because I was always hanging out looking at the gun display. My dad had bought me a single shot Mossberg bolt action .22 when I was 7 and I asked him if I could have the Remington. He said I could get it if I worked for it. I mowed lawns (push mower) and clean up for one dollar per lawn all around the neighborhood. It took about a month to make enough to buy it. I walked down to the gas station and bought the rifle and walked home with it downtown Greenleaf Ave. in Whittier, California. Try doing that now...lol. That's also why I live in Idaho. [/QUOTE]
