Doubs... I have never sold a gun that I didn't regret selling... never again!

examples:

- A Remington Model 51 .380 automatic that was so small that it would fit in the back pocket of my jeans and had all rounded edges like a Colt model 1903 only much smaller... boy do I miss that one.

- A .22 caliber High-Standard Model HD-Military with a 6" barrel with two magazines.

- A Colt New Service revolver in .45 Long Colt

- One of the first batch of S&W Stainless Steel Chief's Special sold to my brother as a hideaway gun when he was a police officer... (RECOVERED 20 years later when he left the force and changed careers!)

- Several Colt Gold Cup .45 ACP's and the elusive .38 Special wadcutter...

-One of the first batch S&W Model 19 2.5" round-butt revolvers in .357 caliber... carried it in an upsidedown Safariland rig... gosh that was a sweet shooter and it disappeared under my suit jacket!

- A S&W K-38 with a 6 inch barrel that would cut groups that looked like a ragged hole at 25 yards...

- A Weatherby Mark V in caliber .22-250 that could shoot sub MOA groups... killed a woodchuck with it at 450 yards!

I don't think I can go on... I think I just ruined my afternoon. <img border="0" alt="[crying]" title="" src="graemlins/crying.gif" />
