What was your worst handgun purchase?

[piercedjp]

Jennings 380. I was young, dumb and didnt know better. I ended up trading the gun for a pizza from Union Jacks, needless to say, I got the better end of that trade.

 

[Z281996]

A Rohm RG10 Bought at a pawn shop luckily was able to return it for my money back. Told the owner it belonged at the bottom of the resevoir.

I would have to say a Taurus PT-111 (first gen), that I bought used. Nightmare.

 

[huzyerdaddy]

This...

I got that one too...

 

[Scotty]

Probably My Taurus PT145 PRO, still have it but wish I never bought it!

 

[signut49]

Had a Taurus PT92 and a PT100. Junk, junk, junk!

 

[hootenholler]

taurus tcp 380 ...jams every shot...ground down feeder ramp with die grinder and re polished it and go it to work just fine but sold it...good riddens

 

[toyotaslave]

Had a cheap .32 ACP from Bryco/Jennings once. It worked so good it would actually fire hand cycling rounds without trigger press. Yeah.

 

[THE SENTINEL]

mac 10 traded a mini 14 for it .You couldnt hit anything with it.
found out early about novelty guns.if it was fullauto that would of
been cool.

HAD a Taurus pt-22 once. Not sure why I bought it at the time? I had not shot it all that much and the action was getting pretty sloppy so was one of the few guns I ever got rid of and did not feel bad about afterwards.

 

[CTC B4Z]

Interarms PPK .380..... put about 100 failed rounds through it, jams all the time... it now serves its purpose as a paper weight on my money in my safe...

My worst purchase was a pair of brand-new Taurus Airweight .22 revolvers. They would lock up when trying to fire them. I sent them back to Taurus FIVE times each before Taurus finally replaced them. I sold the new guns as soon as they came in and went back to S&Ws. I thought these might make some nice inexpensive training guns but I was sadly mistaken.

 

[terrythegamer]

I bought a used bryco arms 9mm worst gun ever kept jamming every shot then when i used a better grade ammo the slide blew off.

 

[zenbruno]

NAA "Guardian," .32 ACP followed closely by Keltec P-32, .32 ACP. I will never make those mistakes again.

 

[LtScott14]

Jennings 22 cal, POS. Squires Bingham M16/22 cal, POS. Intra Tech 38 spec Derringer w/grip safety, POS. All cycled one round, jam, cleaned, jam, jam, jam. Adios POS.
Intra Tech shot okay till I was cleaning and a piece of metal fell out of it and I couldn't figure out where it went. Feared taking apart the grips that it would fall apart. Funny, traded the Intra Tech for a Davis 32cal derringer which is pretty cool gun. Haven't shot the Davis more than a dozen times, but it is holding up ok for a safe queen that is nickle plated w/ wooden grips. It serves as a BBQ gun.

 

[GuyRelford]

A 1988 Helwan 9mm - licensed Egyptian knock-off of the Beretta Brigadier. I accepted it as credit against some money that a guy owed me, and I really should have held out for cash. Wouldn't feed, wouldn't eject, you had to remove the mags by force and it was the most inaccurate full-size gun I've ever shot. I later traded it in on a Glock 30 and I think I got $75 for it.

 

[steve666]

The one I didn't make!!!

 

[KCJarman]

Worst ever purchase..... Walther PK380. Bought new and you could not go through a full magazine of ammo without having several FTE's. Thought maybe it was a wear-in issue so I kept feeding the thing more ammo. Somewhere around 1500 rounds the slide started to get loose on the frame and it still had FTE issues. JUNK!!!!!

 

[acarnahan]

KelTec PF9 simply because of the controllability. I have a couple friends that don't mind it but I just don't have the grip to control it. I got a G26 and it's twice as heavy but I can shoot it so much better.
