Not really a "fire"-arm, but a "gas"-gun. A Crosman "Single Action 6" pellet gun in .22 caliber using CO2. It is a gun my Dad purchased the year I was born, 1959, and the year Crosman started producing them. The Crosman gun of this model was not known to have worked well due to some sealing issues. You might get all six shots off before the CO2 was empty. He was going to use it to shoot gophers (actually, 13 line ground squirrels) in Wisconsin along gravel roads, just for fun. He ended up getting a single shot, more accurate Crosman pellet gun. When I was about 8, it was given to me as a play-gun with a holster. It has the heft of a real Colt and naturally hung low on my hip.
