    My 1st handgun I bought when I turned 21. A 3" Springfield xd9. I sold it to a friend and he likes it to much and wont sell it back. This is the only gun that I sold. Minus the junk sig mosquito that I returned 1 week after I bought it.

    The only gun I've sold was my original duty gun, a Sig P220R, but it was just to my fiance' so technically it will be half mine. We were just dating at the time and I needed the $$ to buy my G17 when we quit carrying .45

    First gun I ever owned was an old chinese SKS in a folding stock. I wish I hadn't sold it. I'd've definitely changed the stock once I wised up but it was a fun gun. Plus, the prices have gone up on them a bit since then.

    I wish I still had my Glock 20, but I sold it while in college.

    I wish I had purchased that transferable M16 for $3,000 in 1996 from a good friend of mine. It was a NIB Colt M16 A1 and I am still kicking myself in the butt for not getting it. I even went so far as to have the sheriff sign off on my form, then thought to myself "what am I ever going to do with this?".... Hell, I was only 23 at the time and since when does a 23 year old have that type of mentality?

    i've bought and sold alot of guns

    i had to. to make my collection grow. my biggest regret is i traded a 1911 bollaster mollina (a south american 1911) for a nice smith and wesson model 29. i ended up selling the 29 (i wanted a stainless gun, i'm not a fan of blued guns) so i sold it. i still miss it.

    The 2 I would like back are a old Ruger Mini-14 folder and a sweet Belgian, Browning Hi-Power made in 1970 that I sold to my best friend. The sob won't sell it back. :mad: :D

    I've only sold two guns...a pistol grip short barrel Mossberg 12G that I hated and don't regret selling, and my Chinese SKS that was in great shape and all original. I sold the SKS when I bought my AK recently, since I figured I'd never shoot it again. I was probably right, but I still miss it in a weird way, and I know I'll never find another one for the same price. :hs:

    But shooting the AK sure does take the edge off the pain... :D

    I kinda regret selling my first pistol, nothing special, just a S&W 915 pre-ban. Only reason I miss it was that it wasn't expensive and it was full sized, I currently don't own any full sized pistols.

    however I'm making up for it lately with long gun purchases and I'll be back in pistol purchase mode hopefully by this time next year.

    Ruger Mini 14 Ranch .223 sold it when I moved out on my own. Then they passed the AWB shortly there after. That was the only firearm I ever sold, and swore I would never do it again.

    The only gun I miss after selling it is a Ruger .44mag Super Blackhawk. Sold it so I could buy my then fiance a pair of diamond earrings. Guess the trade-off was worth it, been married now going on 21 years. But I still miss that gun.

    I bought a Browning A-Bolt .270 when I was about 14 yrs old. It took me almost 2yrs to get it off of layaway. I paid for every cent of it. I pawned it off when I was about 20 b/c I needed money. I have regretted it ever since.
