Which gun did you sell or trade and now wish you hadn’t?

For me, I regret selling a pristine S&W model 13 with a 4” bbl.

My S&W 686 stainless steel with 6" barrel. I know I could go buy another one but the prices have shot up so much! I went through a get rid of my revolvers “stage”. I love auto’s and have a pile of them but I do wish I still had that 686.

First gun I ever bought was a Beretta 92FS. Shortly after that, I bought Berettas in 380 and 22 so that I could use any of them and have the same DA/SA, mechanics, etc.

I still have the 92FS, but sold the other 2. Wish I still had them.

I had a pristine 586 (the blue version) and wish I had it back…not as much as the model 13.

I bought a Hi-Point C-9 back in 2003, for $99. I sold it in 2008, to a friend that needed a handgun but couldn’t afford a “good” one. I never had any issues out of it and wish I would have kept it, just to do durability and longevity tests with it over the years.

I wish I still had my 38 special Colt Detective Special snub nosed revolver. Sold it about 16 years ago upon retirement.

I sold a Springfield Armory 1911 Ultra Compact years ago. I used the money to purchase a gift for someone else who has since then, failed to appreciate my sacrifice.

I wish that I hadn’t sold that handgun.

@ Mike270 , As I’ve gotten older the gp100 seems heavy . Nice to shoot tho . Had that security six about 15-16 yrs . Lots of easy shooting hand loads thru it . Looking for another but they are at a premium price.
