Biggest and least gun regrets....
You know how sometimes you sell a gun and spend years kicking yourself in the a** for doing it? What are your biggest regrets?
Mine -
1. Colt gold cup from the custom shop. I think it was posessed by spirits that made the bullet go where I wanted it to in spite of any bad technique on my part. Silly accurate.
2. My first gun, a good old single six.
Least regret -
1. Selling my 2 Glocks. Never liked them and spent a lot of time comparing the XD's to the M&P's before buying XDM's and never regretted it.
2. Selling my Redhawk 44mag. I couldn't control myself and kept loading super hot loads or buying the hottest bullets I could find. Made me a HUGE flincher. Once it was gone I deprogrammed myself and stuck with 9's and 45's and 22's and starting A I M I N G again.
What are yours?

My biggest regret is that I don't have more guns. I can't think of a least regret.

Biggest regret : Selling an M1A-A1 Bushmaster rifle w/o shooting it for $200 and an SKS (back in the late 90's too when SKS were a dime a dozen)
Least regret : Getting rid of those Hi-point pistols .45 and .380 for what I paid for em

Biggest: Selling a mint cond. Marlin Model 60 Stainless Steel .22lr that I aquired for $75.00, sold for $125.00, found out it was actually worth upwards of $300.00 a few years later.
Least: Got rid of the cheap economy Remington model 770 .270cal., that was a piece of junk, for about $100.00 less what I paid. Remington's biggest mistake ever making IMO.

Biggest: None, as of yet. I was very sure that before I traded something I was willing to say goodbye. Don't miss my S&W 6906 because I got an M&P9C and I don't miss my SIG P250 because the Glock19 I got was WAAAAAAY better.
Least: Getting ride of that darned 250 for a Glock.

Truth is like the finest dagger ever made;
The steel cannot be dulled, chipped or broken.
Its thrust is deep and causes agonizing pain.
Those struck with the dagger of truth
must come to terms with the wicked lies
within their heart and soul.
No matter where you run or hide, nor how deep you dig your foxhole...the big green weenie WILL find you.
