Whats the gun trade that you most regret?

[watkins1988]

i traded this:

For this:

I know I know. let the bashing begin, I've bashed myself a few times

 

[Fordtough25]

Ah the ones we let go.... There are a few that have left my hands that I wish I still had, some I have replaced with the same gun shortly there after. Either way it gets easier with time I suppose.

 

[watkins1988]

at the time i rationalized it by cost of ammo. probably the worst decision ive ever made lol

 

[Fordtough25]

Having a cheap shooting gun is never a bad idea! Heck I have traded a gun for mass quantities of ammo just so I didn't have to buy a bunch! You will get another pistol like that someday if it's meant to be.

 

[whoismunky]

every gun ive traded for money xD

Traded an S&W 469 for a Beretta 9000s. I went back two days later to buy the Smith back and it was gone. Very sad.

I regret just about every gun I got rid of; mostly because I've found new shooters that would have gotten a kick out of shooting them or to just have in the collection. The only one I really genuinely regret is my Glock 35 because it was my first of many Glocks and the one my wife actually talked me into getting.

I had a beautiful S&W model 66 snubbie with the round butt that I traded for a Colt Double Eagle .45 POS when they first came out. To this day I can't think of that 66 without wanting to kick myself in the arse.

My pre-series II Kimber Custom for a NIB Glock 20 and NIB Glock 26. Seemed like a decent 2 for 1 deal at the time. I probably did come out ahead in some way, but I sure do miss that Kimber.

Traded off a Beretta Centurion 96 ( most accurate pistol I had owned by the way) for a 1917 nickle plated Colt 1911 .The Colt sat on the shelf most of the time & could not bring myself to shoot it as much as I did the Beretta .

Got any more .357's sitting around? I have a Marlin M-60 I'll trade you!
I traded a FN-49 in 8mm and an old Charter Arms off duty for an old Fox sawn off shotgun (18 1/2" bbl)

 

[kturner100]

Ditto the 96 Centurion - traded one in and don't remember now what I traded for but that .40 Centurion was extremely accurate and kept getting better. That the one I miss.

 

[RH822-A]

Traded a Erma KGP68A 380auto for a Taurus 85 38spl. I love the Taurus, but really miss that Erma.

I'll trade you an SU-22 for a 1911, even throw in 2k rds of ammo

Cherry Camp .45.

I shoot my guns and take them camping, hunting, fishing, etc. It would have lost a lot of value. I therefore traded it to a collector.

Still, with the mods I did (recoil buffer and stronger recoil spring) it was an awesome weapon and perfect companion to my 1911.

I want another one, one I wouldn't feel guilty actually using!

When my new bride pulled a bonehead with her new credit card and we needed money I had to sell the colt 1911 that I bought new on my 21st birthday. It was a great gun and the one I learned how to shoot a pistol on. I traded it for the much needed cash. You gotta do what you gotta do, but there's hardly a day goes by where I don't check the newest classifides on this website for my old 1911. Some day it'll show up here and I buy it back.

Of the belief that if you deal with guns enough, it will happen sooner or later. Wish I had the Alzheimers or my Smith back.
