I got it from my father in law who passed away back in May, it's not accurate at all but it functions

I would say CETME, but I just parted it out and sold it.

Left the factory a POS? Does a Glock that out-of-box stovepipes, throws brass at the shooter's face, and has generally weak ejection count? If so, that is my current biggest POS.

I don't think I would have shot this even when it was new.
It did look pretty good on Sharon Stones' leg in "The quick and the dead"!

S&W Model 1. It was my great great grandfather's pocket revolver. It's in decent shape but could use some work. It just lives in the safe.

I almost bought a Jennings Bryco 59' in 9mm.  Luckily I took it shooting first.  Part of me wishes I still bought it just to show people a truly horrible gun.  Worked great as a paper weight for the time I had it.

My 10/22.  Not that it is a bad gun, but I bought it used and it only had aftermarket mags that suck.  I've had a lot of ftf with this particular one.  Its the shitty plastic stock with a stainless barrel.  I bought it thinking I would restock it maybe rebarrel it, but it never happened.  I just find it uninteresting and not exciting enough to put money into.  I am thinking of selling it and buying a lever action 22.

Walther SP22. 11# trigger from the factory on a target pistol. Inaccurate piece of shit. The only honest piece of shit I ever owned.

I had a Llama 45 .  I really tried to like it as it came from my late brother. He never shot it cause it sucked so bad.
He gave it to me to get it out of the house before he passed.  He instructed me to sell it if anyone would buy it.

I took it to Scheels to trade in on a 870 hoping to get maybe $50 or $60 on trade.  They said they were sorry but could only give me $150 trade value. I like to think he is still smiling about my deal.

That gun could not go one magazine without multiple no fire or no feed, I tried to have a couple different smiths look at it. They would not touch it.

Yep, it'd be between my Iver Johnson break-action .32 and my Taurus PT25. The Iver Johnson has more character so I guess I'd have to go with the Taurus.

I'm not sure how to answer this question since I only buy quality guns.

I suppose I'll give you my bench warmers list of guns that are least likely to get used in a clutch.

1) Sigma 40ve. - Say what you will but my personal gun has been rock solid and now sports a 4.5# trigger. Still, I have several other S&W Pistols.

2) Mossberg 590a1 Blackwater edition - I only own this because I believe that every household in America should have a 12g pump shotgun handy.

3) Hi Standard 9 shot .22lr revolver (1950s vintage with box and instructions) - Inherited from my grandfather 5 years ago. I have never fired this quality revolver.

4) S&W I-Bolt Rifle in .30-06 - I actually really love this gun but, it is mostly obsolete in my collection now that I have an AR-10.

I've got you beat.  I'm pretty sure your Jennings has had at least a few rounds down the barrel, right?

I have a Heritage Stealth that's never fired a single round.  The striker doesn't start to cock until too far forward in the forward stroke of the slide, so the rim of the round snags on the protruding striker, locking everything up.  Also, the safety is completely worthless, it only serves to increase the weight of the trigger pull, doesn't actually stop anything.  The manual (un)safety is the only one present.  There are no passive safeties such as firing pin blocks, drop safeties, etc.  It doesn't really need them though since it can't chamber a round to begin with.

First gen Walther P22.

Piece of utter shit, it shit parts like a dog with the squirts. When a major component broke for the third time I shelved it. It has sat disassembled in a box in my basement for almost ten years now.

The funny thing is that while my original P22 is such a shit show, my original first gen German P99 is one of my favorite 9mm pistols. Go figure.

Sounds like you have a lemon.  I have two buckmark campers and they have been flawless.  I have probably shot them more than any other gun I own (aside from maybe my 10/22.)

No longer have either but I was going to say my Davis P380 until I realized I once owned a S&W Sigma that had the guide rod break, front sight fall off in the first 100 rounds. Was also delivered with 3 bad mag springs.  All this through an LE distributor, because they assured us it was as good as a Glock...

Jennings j-22 that a south of the boarder bubba worked on. It won't go bang and I think replacement parts wouldn't be worth buying so I literally use it as a paper weight.

An SCCY 9mm. Never shot it but it does look good bit big and heavy but seems to function well enough by hand. So I can't call it garbage but it will be trade fodder.

I had a Sites Spectre in 40 cal that was a huge POS.  The stupid SOB that traded me an Oly AR thought he ripped me off.  

The POS gun I own now is a Spanish FR8 Mauser.  Its a little beat up, but is accurate enough for a single shot.  It just won't feed .308 rounds out of the magazine.  And yes, I replace all springs in the gun.
