I wouldnt. I think my problem is that the particular glocks I own never did come with the kool-aid in the box. It is supposed to be in there with the manual right? |

Sigma (puke)
Cast-receivered DPMS some ripoff artist built for me from parts. Wicked unreliable, and $850, too.  RC K98k, crappy action, overpaid $250 for it more than it was worth. Traded it for a rearsenaled RC K98k that had a mirror-bright, brand new bent barrel. 4+ foot groups @ 200 yards, 4 feet to left of point of aim. It's getting a new barrel in 6mm Rem now. This will only cost me another $650 in smithing work to make it right.

Which is worse, their CETME or M1? I bought one of their M1's years ago when I didn't know any better.

A Beretta 950 .25 ACP.
It's a true belly gun, aimed fire is nearly hopeless since the bullet strikes the target about 15 inches left of the aim point at 15 yards. [And no, it's not my defective grip.] Too bad, this is otherwise a nice pocket gun that I really wish would shoot accurately. |

I guess then it would be a Bubbaretta 950. |

How's this...I have a LIST of all the things wrong with it...which I have to fix. Century doesn't stand by their product. I called them about the lack of quality of this rifle and about how many things are actually wrong with it and they basically said, "tuff titties".

 9mm too weak? Tell me, have you ever shot someone with a 9mm? Have you ever shot someone at all? Or are you just another armchair commando, making assumptions based on ballistics gel data? I'll keep all that data in mind if I'm ever attacked by giant, knife wielding pieces of ballistics gelatin. |

I have yet to regret purchasing any firearm that I've taken home.
I've got Glocks, S&W, KelTec, Colts, Ruger and some others. I only buy guns after I know I'll be happy with them (through first hand experience/knowledge or most available information) I don't by things I don't know anything about. |

Just bought a Marlin 60 and it might be up on my list. It FTE or jams at least once with every magazine. I also have had really bad luck with an SKS now, I bought a Ygo and it jammed so bad today I had to take it apart at home and use a sledge hammer to get the bolt to unlock. Why havent I learned my lesson with used guns. |

A Savage 1920 in 250 Savage through the paper, in place of a really nice 1903 in a target stock and 28" barrel.
I called up the owner, who said the Savage was mint, with the rare cocking piece sight. I ripped on over there, and saw it was refinished, with the later stock (swept back bolt handle cutout in place of the straight). The stock was sanded down below buttplate level, and diamonds retouched, with a few coats of linseed oil. Well, the bore is gone and the rifle keyholes at 25 yards. Still looking for a good barrel, but this rifle is waaaay in the back of the safe. |

Well, to be perfectly honest, nothing really in terms of function. I just thought the fit and finish of it was cheap as hell, and the rib on the barrel kept rusting in my apartment. But other than that it seemed to work all right. I'm not really a shotgun person, so it was kinda a mistake for me to get a shotgun in the first place. In the end, I got rid of it because I didn't really trust it. It was more of a mismatch between me and the gun, rather than the gun's fault. Same story with my Taurus PT111 Millenium Pro 9mm. Despite numerous complaints from others, I've never been able to make the stupid thing fail on me, and its ergonomics and size are perfect IMO for a carry gun. Unfortunately, I have tried and tried to get used to the looooooong DA trigger pull and I can't, so it's got to go. |

Arminius HW6 - 2" .22LR 8 shot revolver made in East Germany.
Horrible double action trigger, marginally better single action. I figured $99.00 was a steal for a gun that was no longer manufactured and in mint condition with box and papers.  Lesson learned - always go with an established manufacturer with a good reputation! |

Just bought a 7mm Mauser from my step sons father for $150. He needed the $$. Got it in the ars on this one. Threw it in the chocks to clean the barrel and oil the ol girl as it had not seen either in some time. I saturated patches with solvent and the barrel is so pitted from rust that it is shreading the patches that you push down the bore. Look down it with the bore light
Swiss cheese! I will attempt to get pics. Anyone got any suggestions for saving the life of this ol piece of nostalgia??This guy gave his son a Remington Targetmaster model 510 22 short/long rifle taht I guess belonged to my step sons grandfather. I literally had to drive the rod through the barrel with a hammer. Not all at once but a little at a time. Drive it, pull it and clean out loose rust, dirt, and believe it or not dead bugs?? |

Just bought an HK51. Did not know they were all conversion guns from 91's. Thought it was a real HK production model gun. Paid 2000 for it. Nice looking but the design of the recoil sucks as they bottom out on the spring. Would have bought something else had I known.

My AR15.
Don't get me wrong, I love the gun and I am glad I have it, but I had no business dropping close to $1000 on a gun that I can't afford while trying to put myself through college. It was definately the biggest impulse buy that I have been guilty of up to this point in my life. I still can't afford the AR, but I'm keepin' it. |

Mine was an AP9, an aftermarket Tech 9, what a piece of shit. It looked cool but jammed every three rounds.
Another one recent but not envolving me, some friends of mine went to a local gun shop to get a new XD .40 and some guy purchased an Olympic Arms 20" A2 for $1200, he never even tried to negotiate. Wow! |

i purchased a stainless steel .357 mag derringer. it was a pretty good pocket gun until a shithead stole it from me. i got it back after "... an incident in east austin..." according to the detective. when it came back the hinge was loose and it was covered in fingerprint dust... looked like someone had tried to grind the serial number off, but had a hard time since it was stainless...
after it was stolen, it was crap as far as i was concerned. used to be a neat little pocket gun, but afterwards, it was an albatross. i never shot it after that. oh yeah... an H&R 626 .22 revolver. |
