    Bsa sportsman 15, was my first rifle.... Bloody accurate as well, could hit an empty 308 case at 30m every time I pulled the trigger (being a newbie shooter I thought that was impressive)

    Could also include a litter of pups, sold them all for $400 and then discovered the colouring was rather rare and they were worth $2K

    You know I sit here and cannot think of anything I’ve owned, sold and regretted. I tend to find once owned and used it’s out of my system and gone, either that or I’ve lost my memory? In the late 70s always wanted an MGB, bought a pearler, owned it a few yrs sold it to finish a house, in my 40s two Cosworths came and went, rifles and shotguns, sold my collection in my 40s, about 30 units in total. All that and no regrets. Guess I don’t have that female gene you guys have? Never look back?

    Not really, I generally suffer from BUYER'S regret!

    A 1916 Tula produced Maxim machinegun on a wheeled mount complete with all the bits.

    It had a repaired bulet hole through the water jacket after being captured by the Finns in the Russian winter war.

    Christ knows why I sold it.

    What is this "selling" you speak of? I have never sold a rifle.

    Which explains why the gunsafe is overflowing - thankfully I don't buy rifles as often as some forum members or I would need a bigger house!

    Ruger Mini 30 Ranch Rifle.
    My first centre fire rifle.
    Pulled of some crazy shots with that rifle.
    Sold it as it was not getting used.

    Also..... maybe some regret.... a 96/22 that went to @Double Shot on here - but it went to a good home so I don't miss it too much
    Is this like the one you miss.
