So HonkyTonkHale had a great idea in the "guns of first opportunity" thread where he said he could do a list of guns he traded or sold that he now regrets. So, I'm borrowing his idea to start this thread with the intent of showing you how boneheaded I was so you don't feel too bad about guns you have lost.
Here is my list of guns I've traded/sold that I REALLY regret:

1. Sig P210 M49 Denmark Royal Army in original box with original wood grips (purchased while stationed in Germany, so no import marks)
2. HK P7M13 (purchased while stationed in Germany, so no import marks)
3. S&W 10-5 Detroit Police marked in perfect nickel finish
4. Moisin Mod 91/30 Sniper Russian with serial number matching scope
5. Hammerli 280 .22 (purchased while stationed in Germany, so no import marks)

I sold these all plus several others to fund my (now) wife's engagement ring 12 years ago. I'm now going to go cry in the corner a bit... :cry11:

Well, let's see. In no particular order.

4" royal blue Colt Python
Vector AK underfolder
Ruger PC-9 9 mm carbine
S&W model 66
S&W model 586
IMI Transferable UZI
S&W 645
Ithaca Model 37
Ruger Police Service 6
Ruger Mini-14 GB
Colt SP-1

That's all that comes to mind at the moment. I'm sure I can think of more later.

Hmm. Smith 29-3 blued, 8 3/8 barrel, perfect shape. Bought it for 300 bucks, should have never sold it.
My first gun ever. 300wm Ruger MKII stainless.
Hard Chromed P7
Stainless Mac-11
EAA Atis PM2 shotgun. Only imported in 1991(from what I was told)...steel mags. Never seen another one.

OKC, the finest place to be!
I am glad you started this thread. I would have felt pretentious if I started one so similar to the other one. I am curious to see what others have traded or sold, and also don't want to feel like the only one who has made regrettable sales/trades.

COP .357 (I could actually see the guy at the gun show licking his chops that time)
FN Five-SeveN (it was a fun gun, but I always hated how it looked)
S&W 629
Seecamp .380
Colt Mustang Pocketlite (gave to my sister)
Remington 870 w/ Urbino Stock (gave to the other sister)
The rest are permanently repressed memories

Rem 870 express 20ga! First childhood gun bought for me to hunt when I was 10yrs old. I sold it on this forum in 2009 to fund another firearm purchase. Big regrets!
