I buy, sell and trade often... So I've sold or traded many many guns. (I'm not wealthy enough to keep all the guns I've purchased and I like to sell and trade so I can experience owning / shooting many brands and models.)

What gun have you gotten rid of... That you now wish you would have kept? (No fair saying 'all of them')

Here's mine

- a mint 1914 Mauser chambered in 7.65browning

I didn't even keep a picture of it

I keep most of mine but I do regret selling my first handgun purchase, a Ruger 44mag, 10.5 barrel, stainless.

AC code WW2 Walther G43.....
It just wasn't practical to me.
🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

I got 9 firearms.
Core group guns.

If I kept every long gun and handgun I ever had since I was 12.
I would have around 85 to 95 long guns and 25 to 30 pistols.
I grow bored easily with alot of guns and am always interested in something else.

A Marlin 1895 Guide Gun in .45/70 with JM stamped on the barrel. Tried to buy it back from the coworker that I sold it to.....then he changed his mind and decided to keep it. Can't blame him!

Yeah. I got the itch for a specific gun I wanted and I never shot the 870 very well.

Wow do I feel like an idiot. We all did dumb stuff when we were 23 I guess.
