I've only ever parted with a few firearms, none of which I regret selling. On the flip side, there are a bunch I regret NOT buying....... | |||

Colt Gold Cup Series 70 45 ACP, first gun purchased with my own hard earned cash. Sold it to, wait for it.......pay for an engagement ring. Browning Auto 5 Light 12 28"early Invector. Sold to pay for books last college semester. My duck hunting bros laughed at me cause I packed it in a thick soft case and didn't unsheath it until dekes were set and the blind smelled of coffee and donuts. Next season every 1100 and 870 in sight was in a case. | |||

I'm not laughing WITH you |
There have been many over the years. Some that I lost interest and then wondered why I sold, some because I needed money and had no better choice. They include: HK P7M8 package S&W 610 Rolan Kraps SASS Regulator Gainesville, Georgia. NRA Range Safety Officer NRA Certified Instructor - Pistol / Personal Protection Inside the Home | |||

I think I've only sold about 5 guns. 20 ga standard weight Remington 1100 - It was nearly mint but was back behind the Brownings in the safe. I almost doubled my money. Kimber 1911 - nice gun but I wasn't shooting pistols much and I made a few bucks and it went towards one of my favorite shotguns, which is now worth a whole lot more. Remington 798 .300 WM - don't miss it at all. It was included in a trade package for a Ruger No. 1. Ruger Mini 30 - kinda miss this one but it was also in the above package. I overpaid a bit but the 798 was cheap and I didn't want it anymore. Glock 26 - received as partial trade for a 4 wheeler and was then traded away with a little boot for my P226. Good trade. I'm gonna vote for the funniest frog with the loudest croak on the highest log. | |||

Too clever by half |
The only one I have ever sold was incomplete, but I regret it nonetheless. An LMT lower. "We have a system that increasingly taxes work, and increasingly subsidizes non-work" - Milton Friedman | |||

I regret selling my P229 Sport. I sent it back for workmanship issues. Sig sent me another just as bad. I wrote a motivating letter and sent it back again. The 3rd P229 Sport was perfect with a nice bead blast finish. The lines on that gun are just perfect. ____________________________________________________ The butcher with the sharpest knife has the warmest heart. | |||

I have had many guns come and go. Two that stick out were a Colt Python 6" royal blue in 99% condition. The other was an Automag in 44. These were sold to fund other projects, which I sold to fund other projects! Sigs P-220, P-226 9mm, & P-230SL (CCW) | |||

Ruger birdshead vaquero in .357 - it was a beast and I was tired of carrying it around on my hip in the woods. I got a great deal on a model 19 smith and thought I'd be much happier with it than the Vaq... I miss the vaquero nearly every time I'm up north. That revolver was a pleasure to shoot.

I forgot to mention a Savage over/under camp gun in .410 and .22 Mag. It used to go on every hunting trip and it provided a lot of camp meat. Mostly grouse and rabbits. You never see them any more.

When I sold my last boat I also sold my Mossberg 500 Just in Case. Kept locked in the forward cabin for years. I loved the tube and the ease of use of the thing. Happy I sold the boat sad about the gun. Whoever said you can't buy happiness forgot little puppies. Gene Hill | |||
