It was a rifle. As I said, a single shot .22. In thinking about it later, I realized that I bought it when I was 12, not 14. (Hey, it was a loooong time ago) I had to have my Dad get it because I was too young to purchase it, though it was my money. I gave it to my oldest niece about 20-25 years ago for her first gun. Very safe, good first gun.
