My stainless Colt Python .357 is the one I regret selling the most. I bought it for $600 in '94, sold it a few years later. Now I can't seem to find one in the same condition for less than 2.5x that price.

No remorse, but it's funny watching a couple of guns I sold pop back up on the trading post with my hands in the pictures...

Sold a matched pair of Ruger Vaqueros in 45 colt stainless with faux ivory handles. Needed some funds to get married (now divorced, what a waste) One was the regular gunfighter length (4 3/4") and the other was a Sheriff's model (3.5") with a bird's head grip.
I STILL miss those things.

I had no buyers remorse because I dont go out and buy them on a whim and I have no sellers remorse because I still have all the ones I have bought.

Too many to list including a left hand 20 ga. 870, Interarms Mannlicher in 308, a bunch of lee Enfields, and a Colt New Frontier. Had solid reasons for selling each gun, but still miss them now and then.

model 70 (I believe it was made in the 80's) heavy barrel, wood stocked 22-250. Sold it about 12 years ago and haven't seen one like it since. Remi R-15 with 18" barrel and collapsible stock a couple years ago.
Still can't believe I sold either of those, especially for the price I got them at. GRRRRRRRR

Had a Smith 28 "Highway Patrolman" for a while...had I known how hard to come by they would be in this day and age...
Had a S&W 442 that was given to me and I shoulda hung on to it, but there was no hope of a concealed carry law at that time and that's all it was good for, so...
Had several Ruger Mk.Is and Mk.IIs with the 5-1/2" bull barrel. Another case of failure to predict the future...
Had a Sako in .30-06 I took in on a swap. I never even put a scope on it, and I've always wondered what might have been...
Had a 4-5/8" New Model Blcakhawk in .41 Mag I had to give to a friend to compensate for his brand new, unfired S&W Model 19 which I lost on a "hunting" trip. That one had an accidental trigger job to die for. Yeah, accidental. Long story...
A pair of Norinco 1911A1s. Weren't much to look at, but as reliable as stones. Another case of now-you-see-um, now-you-don't.
Had a beautiful six-inch Python for a while which got traded for a horrid Kimber 84M Classic, which got traded for this, which got traded for that, and---cripes, I can't remember how it all went down! But maybe I shoulda kept that one...
That's how it goes, though. If I could afford to own everything that appeals to me all at once I'd just keep 'em all, but sometimes I want a new experience that I can only acquire by giving something else up. I'm sure many are in the same boat!

I think no truer statement was ever spoken. Exactly. I'm a gun collector.when we have the money and a gun trader when we don't.

2 Lee Enfields Marlin 25mn Sig P6 Sig 2022 I just bought a Marlin 25MN. I've always liked them and found one for $249 at a local gun shop. I tried to talk him down a little, but ended up with a free box of Fiocci ammo instead. But to keep OT, I sold a 1970's vintage Charter Arms Bulldog .44 Special a few months ago, which I had owned for about 10 years. I couldn't pass up an offer of $600 which is double what I paid, so it went. But I miss it because it was my favorite concealed carry gun. So lately, I have been looking at the Rossi 44Mag snubby, or a Taurus M445.

I sold a Marlin 22LR to a pawn shop when I was 18 for beer money. My Dad have given me that rifle when I was 5. When I got a few years older and realized what a dumb arse I was I vowed to never sell another. And I never have. I am 41 now and have a "quite a few" pieces.

I regret everyone I sold but the one I regret the most was a Stoeger Cougar in .40 S&W. I got it when they first hit the market for $299 and it was a steal. Now they are easily $399+ and hard to find. It was a great shooter.
