.32 5 shot revolver Found it in a pile of junk left in the garage when I bought my house |

P22
The wife refuses to let me rid my good collection from it. |

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. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |

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.

Hacksaw chopped, lightly filed, then crowned with a pipe-flaring tool? |

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. |

Browning Buckmark "Camp" edition. Tried many types of ammo, likes none of them. Isn't striking the primer hard enough.

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 don't mean condition. I mean, POS. As in left the factory as a POS. I'm pretty sure I have you all beat. I own one of these: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/78/Wikijenningsj22-1.jpg View Quote 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. |

Remington 597M. Shitpile from word go. Worthless magazines. Worthless company.

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. |

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 don't have any real cheap stuff.
The only one that really doesn't work that well is my P22, without the suppressor on it. I think I've just literally worn it out. It was the first pistol I had to play with, and that's when 550 rounds cost about 7 bucks. There were days when my friends and I would load up mags and just dump them through it repeatedly. Then I bought my first suppressor, so it was new and different, so it turned into pretty much the same thing again. I barely shoot it anymore, and by the time my daughters are old enough to start learning how to shoot a handgun, I really should just replace it. |

S&W M&P22, jam-o-matic/lemon. But my malfunction clearing skills have gone way up so I'm holding off sending the thing back View Quote Pistol or rifle? My S&W M&P22 pistol has be 100% since day one suppressed and unsuppressed (barring any ammo failures)... It's my goto pistol for first time shooters. It just works. |

If a gun sucks, I sell it. No more SKS's or Mini-14's for me.

Condition - a Chinese sks that looks like someone used it as target practice.
Malfunction - Vepr 12 or mosquito. |

Henry survival rifle.
ETA: mosin m44. That thing is the biggest waste of $70 imaginable. |

The worst I have is a Arisaka Type 99 "Last Ditch" rifle.
It is in great shape, the word great not describing the absolute crudeness of it... |

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. |
