I was 12 years old and mine was bought at Acme Novelty in Calgary......Cooey Model 39....shot a thousand rounds and killed hundreds of gophers.....hahaha

My pockets were full of Whiz-Bang ammo.....

Buddies and me would jump on our bicycles and peddle to the open fields with your .22 slinged to your body with a skate lace....

Good time of my life....
