    Buyers Remorse

    So.
    Which ones have you bought and very quickly regretted.
    For me its the first model Beretta xtrema, no kick off 3,5 inch.
    It was just too big a gun for me, I couldn't hit shit with it, didn't last one week of it's first season.

    There may others but that was the most expensive mistake.

    A Savage .243, it was left handed and I needed a rifle fast.

    Mossberg 802 "Plinkster" in .22LR, the name should have been enough to put me off but I had to learn things the hard way. Most unreliable feeding I've ever experienced from a bolt-action rifle, no matter the ammunition.

    Norino 223, would jam with a live round in the chamber and need to point the barrel up and use a hammer to open bolt

    Common enough, and there is an easy fix using valve grinding paste

    A 16x16x11.2 Drilling I bought at auction once years ago. Didn't get the chance to view properly before the bidding started and it turned out to be a pitted piece of wall jewellery. Sold it on way home from auction to the guy I out bid. Should have just flushed some money down the dunny, would have been easier
