Smith PC627 vcomp no lock.

AR 15 SP1

Back in the 1970's. Bought a blued 6" Colt Python and two 4" Colt .38 Spl Diamondbacks (one blue & one nickel). Sold all because most of my guns were S&W's. They didn't fit in.

I'd like them back now...even though they still wouldn't fit in. Just because they were really neat guns.

If I could only have one of the above back though it would be that 226. It looked like new and shot lights out.

I have a few, Colt Python 6", Colt Diamondback 4" 38Spec., Walther P38, WWII veteran's bring back, Walther PPK/S 380, German made.

I don't want to jinx myself, but I've never sold a gun. I have a few that I wouldn't miss, and I have some that I would prefer to pass on to family rather than sell, because they mean something to me, or are old family guns.

Model 29 “Dirty Harry” gun. I’ve replaced everything else I sold and regretted.

About 25-30 years ago, buying a boat for the kids --
4" stainless Python (grip was too big!)
3rd generation Detective Special
Beretta 92 SCB beautiful blue
3" Model 60 with adjustble sights
Then a few years ago, a Steyr AUG, because a friend wanted it.
The boat was a good thing, but what was I thinking!

3" S&W 65-3.

The Beretta Elites I sold because I needed the $$. Sold off an Elite 1A and two Elite IIs. Awesome pistols, but luckily do to Bill Wilson and Ernest Langdon it doesn't hurt quite so much anymore.

quote:

All those past guns we’ve sold...which ones hurt the most...

None. No hurt. No regrets.

Too many have come and gone. But the ones I miss most were two P7 grade A's I paid 1500.00 for.
A NIB Sig P228 I purchased for 400.00.
And a W German P226 that was nicely broken in but had a ton of finish wear.

I have replaced the P7's with a P7M13 and have bought a NIB W German P226.

I just need to find a sweet P228.

Colt Diamondback .38spcl, 4" a friend sold to me for $200. I traded it to my dad for his Ruger P85 which I traded for a Glock 19 2nd Gen on my 21st bday (1992). My dad traded the Colt for I don't remember what.
HK P7 bought for $435, C grade. Sold it for $400. This was back in 2008 or so.

The P7M8 still haunts me a bit. So does the Mauser HSc. Both were traded away by the early 1980's.

But I'll bolt from the crowd here and along with 12131 say I have no real regrets. All of the guns sold or traded -- and there were many, many -- enabled me to get other handguns, and to enjoy in depth an even wider array of pistols and revolvers. And this has been a lot of fun. Heck, I can't take any of them with me, so I might as well own and shoot a lot of different guns and enjoy the sport.

If it hurts to sell a device of steel/wood/polymer, there are some other issues at play.

HK P7M8 - Wish I had kept that one.

I had what I called "The big 5" that I had to sell to fund my wife's oral surgery...
