Never sold one from my collection. Never will. I've gifted 1 or 2 over the years...no strings attached. Special circumstances/needs by the recipient. Never regretted that. I even had one find it's way back to me, with thanks, after 3 decades. But sell, he'll no. I intend to pass the tools of freedom to my grandchildren.
I regret selling my Smith and Wesson 686-1 6in and my Marlin 444 JM stamp and my Remington 870 Special field all great guns and really expensive now.. 😢😢😢
Only gun I ever regretted selling was a 410 Stainless H&R Tammer shotgun. It was the first firearm I ever purchased at 18 years old. By the time I was 25, I never shot it, and wanted more tacticool firearms. Sold it. When I got home, I instantly regretted it. 8 years later I was scanning some local listings and found a 410 stainless tammer near me. When I got there, it was the same guy I sold it to, with the same ammo case, same rifle bag, and same shotgun. It had the exact mark on the stock from where it fell off my quad one day. I got it back!!!! It now gets taken out once or twice a year. I’ve even let my neighbors kids shoot it.
Had to sell after my Divorce from 1st wife she held me seeing kids she knew how much i loved my guns ...30 years later 2nd wife she is supportive of my gun collection I will never sell any of my guns ever again....NEVER!!
2 come to my mind 1. A Colt jr. 25acp my backup which I carried in my back pocket. Sold it in 1975 and still miss. It looked brand new and had the Gold Prancing Ponies on the checkered walnut grips.I sold for $75 but please remember my gross salary was only $460/mo 2. My full size Colt 1911 45. I got jammed up money wise and had to sell something quick.$700. I miss it every day. There are other ones but this is just too painful brother!
The P30!!! That was a mistake! I got one at a great price in .40 and then bought a .357Sig RCM drop-in barrel for it! WOW!! What a shooter! I will never part with it!!
With this new law the ATF pulling into affect regarding public gun sales making basically everybody into a dealer if you’re making any profit at all or even if you intended to make a profit I don’t know if you’ve looked into it but it was signed into a whole lot in 2022 but the actual brief goes in and is approved on 520 so far as I’m concerned I can’t sell anymore Guns. Not less I had an FFL license
Hi Dan. The only gun I have ever sold and kind of wish I still had was a commander size Ruger 1911. All the other stuff I tried and sold off was because it wasn't for me. I am a fan of keeping what works well and fits your needs, not having a safe full of seldom used items.
@Jeffroh Same. I have five actually that stand out. Savage 110 .25-06, Thompson Auto Ordnance USGI 1911A1 .45ACP, Taurus Model 85 Satin Nickel .38Spl., Taurus PT92AF 9mm, and Smith Model 422 .22 rimfire. Those were the days back then when I was young and stupid but didn't have the money so to get a gun I had to sell one.
@@rbm6184 in late 80s i sold TWO 357Colt Pythons arghhh lol. Another was a single shot break action 357 rifle only 34" long, great for treed black bears. List goes on and on lol. Last few i regret went to vet bills for my German Shepherd so cant cry too hard, id cut out a kidney for that darn dog lol.
@@Jeffroh Yeah my list is longer also but those five stand out as the biggest regrets. Some of them like the 1911 was my first pistol and the work I put into it to make it a good bowling pin gun for matches. My Savage 110 was my first hunting rifle but not my first rifle. The Taurus PT92 was just a great 9mm service/duty pistol. The Taurus Model 85 was my first revolver and satin nickel and it was my second pistol and backup to my 1911. I bought it from my boss originally and he gave me the blues for selling it. Haha.
I’ve sold/traded a number of firearms over the past eight years. Sold two out of necessity (had to relocate for a new job): Henry Golden Boy (my first gun) and an 1891 Argentine Mauser cavalry carbine (1892 year of production). Also sold an SKS, .357 Ruger SP 101, and S&W M&P Compact in .40 S&W bc I stopped shooting them and decided to trade them in for something new and different. Wish I hadn’t.
I hear you on that sharp tail. I get it. I did the same on an Uberti 1876 lever action in 357. Beautiful looking. Regret It. Yes. But it gives me the opportunity to get something else. One can justify all decisions. Can’t we!!
Most often I find something I really want and decide to sell a gun I don't shoot as much as I used to. Sometimes I regret it later and have to buy another to replace it at some time in the future. (5) I miss are .22 Marlin mod 39 lever action, .22 High Standard Citation Military Auto, .44 Mag S&W mod 629-2 6'' revolver, 45 Win Mag LAR Mark 1 Grisley auto, 50 A&E Desert Eagle auto and there are a few more
Any time you want to visit your(?) CZ Sharptail, come on over. As to regrets, yes I have many, though most are from the sell-a-gun-to-buy-a-gun time of my live.
I've been using ammo squared for a few years now. Yes technically you will pay more over time but I chip in like $20 into my account every month and buy several rounds of ammo per month, and then after it gets to a thousand rounds it gets mailed to me(automatically)
My first handgun was a Ruger EC9S that I thought I would never sell because it was my firsthand gun. Well, I sold it with a few other of my guns to help pay for another one.
Feel you brother. Bought a Shadow 2 SAO in August 23. Lost my job in Oct 23, my boss died, but I still have it. Curse is I won't shoot it, should be worth more new as It has been discontinued. My other is a Rami 2075, I've put 50 rounds through it, but also discontinued. Looking to sell them to make house payment. Sad indeed. All this building back better 💩
I’m the same way there’s always something that I’ve gotta have in order to afford it I gotta get rid of something else it’s the curse of always trying to find the ultimate gun
I regret selling, or giving as a gift, any firearm I may or may not have given or sold in the distant past. I am old, and it used to be legal to do so.
Have sold off a few and regretted it! Recalling them is painfull. 1) Colt Detective Special 2) Browning/Beretta BDA .380 3) Churchill SxS 12 gauge (very rare and the most painfull of all to recall) 4) Marlin 1895 .45-70 5) S&W M27 4 inch Highway Patrolman .357 Magnum Not planning on selling any more Guns and I do plan to buy a Canik TP9 SF Elite. Love my early production Canik TP9DA!!!
A $349 WASR-10, AES-10B, PPS43, FAL, Smith Model 19 from the 1970's, ahhh, the list goes on...sometimes guns are like girlfriends. So desirable when ya lay eyes on 'em, but after a while they just kinda sit there, so ya figure, "Ah, Hells Bells, I like this other purty one way better, so....
I "almost" regretted selling my (very inexpensive) Diamondback DB9 Gen 4. My boss was looking for a home defense gun. At the time; I hated the DB9 at the range because it kicked like a mule and WASN'T fun to shoot. I loaned it to him for 2 or 3 months (with two loaded mags, and one in the chamber so he could try it out). He let it sit in the back of his pickup the whole time never firing the weapon. When I finally asked him if he was gonna buy it or give it back; he said "the wife won't go for a gun in the house, so you can take it back"---everything was oxidized from the Iowa Humidity (aluminum casing bullets, gun, the whole nine yards), and I took it out in the country and fired everything. No hiccups at all. I was impressed! I shot EVERYTHING through that $278.00 gun, and it did AND STILL DOES fire everything you throw at it. I'm keeping it, and glad I didn't sell it. Still a hand smacker at the range---but VERY reliable. Other than that, no, my guns are like my guitars...buy, and keep. The wife (and/or grown kids) can do what they want with my stuff when I'm gone.
I really miss my very first pistol, a TX22 Taurus .22lr.. Next would be my Windham Weaponry WW-15 5.56 AR-15. I kinda miss my Sig X-TEN but I replaced it with a P220 Legion 10mm SAO, so not so much.. That coach gun was sweet! It reminds me of a case hardened Iver Johnson 1911 that I wanted!
I absolutely miss a gun I had to sell during hard times - a LAR Grizzly Win Mag chambered for .45 magnum; an over-sized 1911-based pistol that shot well with a projectile that hit hard.
This was back in the 90's, but I let go: S&W Model 27, an unissued SKS, an unissued Mosin 44, a S&W Model 15, and a like new Yugoslavian AK. Didn't realize what I had when I was in my 20's.
There are several guns I regret selling, but biggest whopper is when back in 1987 a guy who I worked with said his Grand mother wanted her late husbands gun out of the house and this really involves " the gun I traded and TOTALLY REGRET IT. Its turns out this was a vintage GI 45ACP in which he used in World war 2 and it was a Remington Rand worth a big chunk of money that I paid only 150.00 for and I didn't being young I didn't know the value of firearms and turned around traded for new Cobray Mac-11 9mm that only cost 225 to 250 dollars . I cringe every time I think about this. Its no wonder the guy who did the trade was so happy.
I don't sell my guns I love every single one of them. However with that said I'm thinking only thinking about selling my Smith & Wesson 642 airweight with Crimson Trace laser. If I ever did sell it I would get the Smith & Wesson 340PD 357.
I understand.....I regret selling some of my older guns, but I sold to upgrade them to newer ones so, I have to accept that, and the ones I have now, are worth the extra money spent upgrading. Thanks for the video !
My first shotgun was an Ithaca 20 ga. pump I got for Christmas one year. I was probably 14. I sold it for pennies on the dollar in my 20s. I had a Marlin model 783 bolt action .22 Magnum rifle that I let go. Also a Remington Speedmaster .22lr semiautomatic rifle and a Remington 7400 30-06 semiauto. To this day I grieve letting those guns go. They’re not all that valuable except to me for sentimental reasons. Now, I won’t sell any gun short of needing the money to save one of my kids’ lives!
Ruger Vaquero. It was a 2002 model. Nickel plated, ivory handle. I traded it for a Ruger PCC. We had some break ins in the neighborhood and some guys in a stolen car were checking out my house. Only semi auto rifle I had was a Rem 552 (22lr) and I didn’t have much money so I traded it for something more worthy of self defense. AR-15 was too expensive around here.
I belong to AMMO2 .. ALSO I have one gun I TOTUALLY regret getting rid of. I had gotten an new job and we weren't allowed to carry single action weapons . instead of holding onto this. I sold it. it was Colt Delta Elite 10mm .
Only regret selling two firearms, a Gen1 G17 and an Australian made L1A1 Self-Loading Rifle. Only regret not buying one firearm I had the opportunity to buy, a late production M1 Carbine in superb condition.
The p30 in 40 is easily converted to 9mm with a EFK dragon fire conversion barrel and you just change to 9mm mags. One note is the p30 share mags with the vp models.
My biggest regret is I let a Ruger P-85 go, don't laugh. I could shoot that pistol better than any other pistol I've ever had. Use to hit man sized steel at 100 yds consistently. Hated the mushy trigger on it is why I let it go. But damn it was accurate as all get out, would buy another or a P- 89 if I could find one in really good shape. Thx for the vid FG
My bucket isn’t nearly big enough for my list. 😂🤣 I’m always thinking two ahead of whatever I’m buying next. I get put on a spending freeze a lot. 🤦♂️
It sucked when I sold an Extar EP9 - polymer pistol that was a lot of fun to shoot, never cleaned it but it shot any and all ammo without issue. Extar now makes an EP45 so that might be a fun one to replace the EP9. They take a long time to acquire though, a wait list and Extar only produces low quantities each month. And then the SBR issue you can’t shoulder it or have a brace on it, unless, of course you pay the infringement tax.
Uugghh!! You selling that coach gun hurt a wee bit. lol 😆. I sold a Marlin 336 a long time ago and regret it to this day. I will get another one day. Thanks for digging up bad decisions hahaha. Another great video good sir 👍🇺🇸🇺🇸
It’s interesting to see that guntubers are like the rest of us enthusiasts. You would think they would keep everything. I had a Lorcin 380 I wish I still had. In California we can’t get the el cheapo guns anymore. There’s something about the cheap low quality guns that I like.
I had a used but new looking Glock 17 with the Tupperware box and all accessories. Now it’s rare enough there’s a replica version out. I will probably never sell another gun.
I'm glad to see you use some advertising once in awhile yet, because you deserve to be compensated for all the expense of doing your videos and your time. I definitely really like the 40 Smith & Wesson caliber, I wish more firearms were made in 40.
I have two big regrets. The cz p07 is probably my biggest regret but also I had a nearly mint condition Chinese sks I sold about 10 years ago and I miss it too!
I like to see 5 or more guns that's the most disappointing to you! My number one is the Remington R51. I wanted to love that gun but we all know it was horrible!
I've never sold anything 😁 Whenever I feel the urge, I usually get cold feet. Within a short time of changing my mind about the sale, I take it to the range just "to be sure" and realize how lucky I was for not selling
Great video! Your list is great, but we all have done it for something else. My top 5 I regret parting ways with would be: -S&w 586 L comp -sig P6 -hk usp 45 -bunch of S&W 59 series pistols including 40 CHP pistol. -Springfield EMP 9mm
I have sold a few.
I'm 70 years old.
I'll never sell anything again.
Safe queens are going to stay home until I die.
I regret every one I've sold!
Never sold one from my collection. Never will. I've gifted 1 or 2 over the years...no strings attached. Special circumstances/needs by the recipient. Never regretted that. I even had one find it's way back to me, with thanks, after 3 decades. But sell, he'll no. I intend to pass the tools of freedom to my grandchildren.

Only ever sold 1. Back in 91. Stainless Super Blackhawk. 44 mag was 17 dollars a box back then 9mm was 5. Traded for a Glock 17. Still regret it.
Love my 40s too Dan. 2 guns I regret selling are my S&W 66 from the 80s and a ruger m77 in 308. Miss em big time.
Had to sell after my Divorce from 1st wife she held me seeing kids she knew how much i loved my guns ...30 years later 2nd wife she is supportive of my gun collection I will never sell any of my guns ever again....NEVER!!
All great choices! I love 40 as well. Coach gun…Love the one you sold, and wish I had it.

With this new law the ATF pulling into affect regarding public gun sales making basically everybody into a dealer if you’re making any profit at all or even if you intended to make a profit I don’t know if you’ve looked into it but it was signed into a whole lot in 2022 but the actual brief goes in and is approved on 520 so far as I’m concerned I can’t sell anymore Guns.

Ruger 77 in 220 swift with a Canjar trigger, I'm a dope.
Hi Dan. The only gun I have ever sold and kind of wish I still had was a commander size Ruger 1911. All the other stuff I tried and sold off was because it wasn't for me. I am a fan of keeping what works well and fits your needs, not having a safe full of seldom used items.
I wish I wouldn't have sold my chiappa rhino 40ds
I sold only one a Hi Point C9 which had stopped using. It worked I started buying Springfield and S&W was hooked.

Just FYI i was randomly and quietly unsubscribed from your channel. Heard of this happening on various gun channels, this is my first experience.
Thanks for letting me know. This has been happening on a large scale. Many people have contacted me to tell me the same thing you did

Yes, we all have regrets. I agree Buz
Ruger Vaquero. It was a 2002 model. Nickel plated, ivory handle. I traded it for a Ruger PCC. We had some break ins in the neighborhood and some guys in a stolen car were checking out my house. Only semi auto rifle I had was a Rem 552 (22lr) and I didn’t have much money so I traded it for something more worthy of self defense. AR-15 was too expensive around here.
I belong to AMMO2 .. ALSO I have one gun I TOTUALLY regret getting rid of. I had gotten an new job and we weren't allowed to carry single action weapons . instead of holding onto this. I sold it. it was Colt Delta Elite 10mm .
Only regret selling two firearms, a Gen1 G17 and an Australian made L1A1 Self-Loading Rifle. Only regret not buying one firearm I had the opportunity to buy, a late production M1 Carbine in superb condition.
I've kept all of mine so I avoid this problem. I'd rather sell my wife. Or maybe just rent her. 😁
Careful, there may be an ATF rule forbidding that!😄
Too funny
I regret selling a gen 1 Hellcat instead of just changing the sights and trigger, and a SAR B6C before aquiring a P-01, which I still haven't.
The p30 in 40 is easily converted to 9mm with a EFK dragon fire conversion barrel and you just change to 9mm mags. One note is the p30 share mags with the vp models.
My biggest regret is I let a Ruger P-85 go, don't laugh. I could shoot that pistol better than any other pistol I've ever had. Use to hit man sized steel at 100 yds consistently. Hated the mushy trigger on it is why I let it go. But damn it was accurate as all get out, would buy another or a P- 89 if I could find one in really good shape. Thx for the vid FG
I've never sold anything either. Their all in my collection!😊🔫
My kind of person ! 👍
My bucket isn’t nearly big enough for my list. 😂🤣 I’m always thinking two ahead of whatever I’m buying next. I get put on a spending freeze a lot. 🤦♂️
Marlin 1895 45-70 stainless laminated. I miss it the most, especially since i paid $600 something for it around 10 yrs ago.
The main gun I hate selling was a Sig Sauer Tacops 1911 in .357 Sig. They quit making them and hardly ever come up for sale 😢
I will never sell my Canik TP9 Elite. I love it, although I am selling my Combat and my Sc. It is so simple and works so fine...
S&W Model 10...(had two CZ P01's but just couldn't manage the smaller slide; traded both).
It sucked when I sold an Extar EP9 - polymer pistol that was a lot of fun to shoot, never cleaned it but it shot any and all ammo without issue. Extar now makes an EP45 so that might be a fun one to replace the EP9. They take a long time to acquire though, a wait list and Extar only produces low quantities each month. And then the SBR issue you can’t shoulder it or have a brace on it, unless, of course you pay the infringement tax.
Uugghh!! You selling that coach gun hurt a wee bit. lol 😆. I sold a Marlin 336 a long time ago and regret it to this day. I will get another one day. Thanks for digging up bad decisions hahaha. Another great video good sir 👍🇺🇸🇺🇸
It’s interesting to see that guntubers are like the rest of us enthusiasts. You would think they would keep everything. I had a Lorcin 380 I wish I still had. In California we can’t get the el cheapo guns anymore. There’s something about the cheap low quality guns that I like.
So far NONE is how many I’ve parted ways with. Admittedly I’m more of a collector and have a few I’ve never fired. Guess I need to change that huh?
I sold one rifle to get a bucket list revolver. I won the rifle in a raffle, a raffle rifle. No regerts.
😁🫡🇺🇸😎
That CZ shotgun is beautiful. 😍
The coach gun surprises me, that is such a beautiful shotgun
I had a used but new looking Glock 17 with the Tupperware box and all accessories. Now it’s rare enough there’s a replica version out. I will probably never sell another gun.
I'm glad to see you use some advertising once in awhile yet, because you deserve to be compensated for all the expense of doing your videos and your time. I definitely really like the 40 Smith & Wesson caliber, I wish more firearms were made in 40.
I feel your pain. I only sold one weapon; a maverick 88, and to this day I regret it
I hear ya Louis
$230 new at Academy Sports all day long.
Remington 1100. Shouldn't have but I was dumb.
Mine is the LC9S, traded for Max 9 and did not like the Max 9.
But after redeemed myself by trading the Max 9 for security 9.
On some level, I regret every gun I've ever sold... Be it my very first Sig 226, or my inexpensive Armscor 200...
I have two big regrets. The cz p07 is probably my biggest regret but also I had a nearly mint condition Chinese sks I sold about 10 years ago and I miss it too!
My Ruger Sr40 😢 , hard to find now , I loved the old Ruger SR series , I had 40 , 9 , 9c sold them all but miss the 40 the most.
I regret selling any Sig hammer fired pistol. The new P320s just don't do it for me.
Winchester 94 30/30 and a original CZ75
Taurus 85 ULTRA lite, boy I miss that, with a hogue grip.
in your lifetime how many firearms have your sold and/or traded? so far I have all my firearms that I've bought & only 1 was used.
I like to see 5 or more guns that's the most disappointing to you! My number one is the Remington R51. I wanted to love that gun but we all know it was horrible!
I regret selling my original TRP Operator..that’s was one smooth shooting gun
I have a 2nd Gen Glock 21 I'll never sell. I trust it as much as any revolver. I can't get it to misfire.
I've never sold anything 😁 Whenever I feel the urge, I usually get cold feet. Within a short time of changing my mind about the sale, I take it to the range just "to be sure" and realize how lucky I was for not selling
Love that!
Good for you Galfrid!
Good for me, but not my wallet 🤣. Honestly, keep something long enough and you'll probably like it again or find some use for it 👍
Sold the HK shame shame shame on you (Bills voice from king of the hill)
Remington 700 5R in 6.5creedmore green stock/stainless steel
Beretta 92FS and Ruger SP101 come to mind.
Stainless Colt Defender, Stainless PPK, and TPH. SIG 229 ELITE
Bummer Dwayne
I know that heartbreak. Several got away from me including a python I bought in the 80s.
Ouch, that hurts Rix
Great video! Your list is great, but we all have done it for something else. My top 5 I regret parting ways with would be:
-S&w 586 L comp
-sig P6
-hk usp 45
-bunch of S&W 59 series pistols including 40 CHP pistol.
-Springfield EMP 9mm
Good ones Jack. Thanks for the feedback
Surprised you got rid of the magazine feed shotgun you looked like you enjoyed that
