never owned a bad gun, my least respected gun would be a norinco SKS the rodney dangerfield of rifles. I like it more than most AK's but allot will turn their nose up at an SKS.

Worst gun I've owned... My yugoslavian SKS, but I am still happy with it because I got more than I payed for. It just had some problems with the gas piston, I had to sand some nicks and burrs off of it to get it to work right, but now I haven't had any issues that I can't attribute to bad ammunition.

Worst gun I've had in my possesion...M-16A2

Glock 19 it did not fit my hand and could not shot it as close of the grouping I got from my pt92

The other problem child was shot only 100 rounds before selling at the price I paid for PF-9. Shot ok had a few FTF (maybe it was the ammo) could not trust this on my family lives so out it went. I also did not like it construction felt cheap.

I've never owned a POS gun... With all the guns in my signature, they have all been 100% for me. I like to buy nothing less than quality and I guess I got lucky.

Although I have had many FTE's with my SKS, but that was before I cleaned all the 10lbs of cosmoline out of the op rod assembly. Now its 100%.

Saturday night specials FTL.. Thats why I will never buy a "cheap" gun. I may buy inexpensive, but I will never buy cheap. My Ruger P89 is about the most inexpensive gun I own, but its never let me down and is accurate. I would even trust my life to it if it was all I had.

Oh and I still havent sold a gun yet. Don't plan on it either. I buy, but I don't sell!

Don't remember which models they were but they were both Taurus Revolvers, both snub nose, 2" or 3" bbls. One was a 357 and the other 22magnum.

Had both guns back at Taurus in the first month I bought them and the 22mag went back before I ever put a round down range from it.

Have not purchased a Taurus since. Don't trust them any more. The 357 dropped a frame screw while I was at the range shooting it. Was lucky to find the screw in all the gravel. The screw would not go back in the gun so I had to send it all back for warranty service.
Truth be told, Taurus had both guns longer than I did, and as soon as I got them back I sold them back to the dealer I got them from.

Sig Mosquito .22lr. Purchased on a Friday a couple of weeks ago, shot 300rds. same day, jammed at least twice every magazine. Bought different ammo. and came back the same day, same thing. Cleaned at the end of shooting session on Friday.

Went to the range on sunday morning with 3 diff. types of ammo, same thing, jam, failure to feed, etc.. Went back to the range Sunday afternoon to give it one more chance, gave up after that.

Shot approximately 700 rds. in two days of owning it and was VERY, VERY disappointed. Traded it in on Monday at the shop I bought it from for an xD compact Bi-tone .45acp for the wife to add to the 2 xD Tactical .45's we already have.

Couple of days after, bought a Browning Buckmark Camper and have been very happy with that .22lr. Couple of weeks after that, bought another xD compact for myself ,same config. as my wife's, hehehehe

SIG mosquito POS! Sorry for the rant

4" Stainless Dan Wesson . 357 revolver. It wouldn't hit the broad side of a barn, and completely turned your shooting black with powder residue, but I worked with a guy, that even knowing all that, wanted it sooooo bad , he paid me EXACTLY what I paid for it. Tax and all.

Wow I just about fell out of the recliner when I read that. Sounds like mine.

Uncle gave me a .22 snub nose revolver. Don't know who makes it, can't find it. Lost in the garage somewhere, maybe even thrown out. When you pulled the trigger it would cock the hammer but wouldn't drop the hammer until you started to release the trigger.
