S&W 459, Ruger super Blackhawk, HK USP. RIA 1911, S&W 586 that had some play in it, but if it was knew... it would have been a keeper.

Browning A-Bolt 300 Win Mag.Mag box too short.Factory recoil pad sucked.This rifle would absolutely kick the crap out of you.With a Limbsaver pad it was OK.Still didn't like the short mag box.Just never could warm up to it.Sold it,no regrets.

For some reason I just had to have one of these. A couple of range sessions and a box of ammo was sufficient to convince me to find someone else who suffered from the gotta have its. First time I've even thought about that gun in the nearly 20 years its been since I got rid of it, won't be replacing it.

Sig P 225 (P6)
Sig P 226
S&W 4586 DAO (old duty gun)
A couple of Ruger SBHs
Glock 27
Para-Ordnance P16 .40 cal race gun.
A couple of Browning High Powers (sacrilegious to some, but performance wise, compared to more modern guns, I found them sub-par).
3 or 4 Model 25-2 .45 ACP wheelguns, none of which were anywhere close to as accurate as a Model 29.
625 .45 ACP wheelgun for the same reason.
And probably a couple dozen others that I don't recall now, and that is just handguns.

S&W Sigma 40 cal Kel-Tec Sub 2000 Norinco SKS Charter Arms 44 Spl "Bulldog" Walther P22
There are a handful of others like the above that fit in the "junk" category, don't miss them at all.
The list of guns that worked well but I don't miss because I do things differently now is much longer. A few notables:
Ruger Blackhawks/Bisleys 44 Mag & 45 Colt A bunch of sporterized Mausers "Scout" rifle SP101 Steyr AUG

Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.

S&W M&P 40 I thought I would step into the 21st century and get a modern high capacity auto. After shooting a couple boxes of shells through it and carrying for a couple weeks I decided it wasn't for me. I sold it to one of my sons and went back to my trusty old Speed Six .357.

Raven or jennings, can't remember...380. My grandpa passed and I found it in his house, took it out and shot it. God awful. Loud as hell and couldnt hit a milk jug at 25 feet. Traded it after one magazine full. Got 50 bucks toward a shotgun if I remember correctly.

Got rid of a Redhawk 7.5" and picked up a 4" 629. Never looked back.

Blackhawk-size Vaqueros. The grip never felt natural to me. I switched to the New Vaquero and never looked back. If I can't kill it with a 255 grain flat point at 900-1000 fps, I'll go to a 480 Bisley.

Jennings J22..bought it at an auction for $30.00 and would rarely run a magazine through without a stoppage...no clue what I did with it.
If you can not deal with reality, reality will deal with you....

Double Tap in 45acp - incredibly sharp recoil! Early Blackhawk in 44Mag - too much cannon Ruger Mark series 22s - hated field stripping them so much I sold them Walter 22 - worst trigger ever
