    It's between a Colt Python 6" blue vs a S&W 686 6" stainless> I regret selling either.
    I have made up for it somewhat with a recently purchased GP100 and an LCR 357.

    Glock 19 for me. I know its a common gun, but damn, Glocks fit my hand perfect. Anyway, I ended up trading it in on something else that I didn't end up liking. 4 years later, I have another G19 and carry it almost daily!

    S&W Model 39-2 fit my hand perfectly, just thought I needed more than 8, why I don't know. Thin enought to cc and big enough to shoot accurately. It was a well made handgun and dependable.

    1st generation XD subcompact 9MM. I loved that gun, but I needed the money more than I needed it (at least in my own mind at the time) so I sold it. Luckily I sold it to my brother, so I still get to visit it every once in a while.

    Not selling traded a Colt LW Commander back in 1993 for a 2nd Gen Glock-19.


    Opps back then they were equal in value, today the Glock is worth about $400 and the LW Commander $800.:dunno:

    A rare, limited importation, FN Baracuda 357 six shot 3" revolver. These
    also had 9MM cylinders available, but only overseas. These were
    related to the Astra 357 revolver. Great gun, stupid me!:dunno:


    Anyone got one for sale out there?

    An original Colt SAA that went for $125.00 back in the mid-70's ( yes, I was much younger, and not too smart about SAA Colts) Although the money did go towards buying a 70's series 1911 ..........

    I still wish I had it.

    The very first pistol that I ever owned was a blued Ruger Single Six that my Brother gave me as an 18th birthday present. Don't even remember now why I sold or traded it, but I was young and not as sentimental back then. I have a nicer stainless SS now, but wish I had kept that first one.

    I've spent the last three years trying to buy like examples of pistols I long ago sold or traded away to get another I wanted. But two I have not replaced are the 4" Diamondback 22 and the nickle S&W Mdl 29 in 44 Magnum......doubt I'll ever turn loose of the money for either.

    But I now once again own a Browning Challenger, a S@W Model 34, a Hamden High Standard 4.5" Victor, and several 4.5" Colt Match Target 22's. I just love 22 pistols.

    regretfully stolen... outside my workplace on 5/6, purchased on 4/30... a sig p239 in .357 sig along with other valuables. all i can hope is that the perpetrator shoots themselves, and i'd get it back in a few months.

    i only had 400 rounds through it... sunsabeaches... (long sigh)

    Mod 59

    My first one. It was a stainless S&W Mod 59 9mm with custom pearl grips. I inherited it from an Uncle and the ex made me sell my guns when the first child was born.. I should have kept the gun and traded in the ex.
