    That would be an XD 40 V-10. It was the first ported handgun I owned. It was a lot of fun to shoot but daughter really liked it. That was her favorite gun. I traded it in on an XD 45. No regrets but if I had the money for it I would get it back.

    Kahr MK9. Bought it from a friend back in 1999 or so for $380. Sold in in 2004, but don't recall for how much. It was a bit heavy for its size, but man was it a nice shooter.

    I regret selling my 1880 trapdoor Springfield....it was in beautiful Condition.
    But I was getting divorced and I had lawyer bills to pay....I sold it for $400.00 about 10 years ago.

    Dan Wesson CBOB. I had an itch for something different, and have regretted it ever since.

    Ruger 77/22 in .22 magnum. It was the all weather varmint model with laminate stock. Buddy sold it to me for $350. Used it for years to shoot gophers and other pests around the farm. Needed the money (or at least thought I did) for a pistol project so I traded it off. Love the pistol but I wish I had another .22 magnum.

    Remington Model 788 .22-250 Had a Weaver K-6 fixed scope. This was the "budget" rifle Remington brought out in the early 70's. I bought it with grass cutting money. First centerfire rifle I owned. Absolutely sweet was the trigger. I thought all rifles were supposed to be like that. Deadly on Hoosier groundhogs.

    Moved to Texas and traded it to a guy for a Ruger M77 .25-06. Wanted something with a heavier bullet that I could hunt deer with. Started reloading and used lighter bullets for jackrabbits.

    I pawned or got a loan on my Beretta a301 with the slug and vent rib barrel for $100.00. I just needed a $100 to pay for the rest of my classes for my 1st semester of college. They offered to Loan me $300 but I only needed a $100 so that was all I borrowed. To make a long story short I forgot to go back and pick it up. When I remembered it was too late!

    I had a World War one USGI springfield armory 1911 that I sold for about $600 five or six years ago. It had no finish left but it was all Springfield armory and had the original mag. I would really like to have it back.

    Ruger MK-II, stainless, short tapered barrel (4.75" I think), circa 1989.
