    I sold a very well-lapped CZ 308 to a guy in town.
    Big mistake to sell a great rifle to someone in the same town.
    He cut the barrel, did something else to the scope mounting points and heavily dinged the stock.
    Looks like trash now. That poor thing

    1943 Husqvarna M38 6.5x55, it was in mint condition and very accurate. Perfect example. Worth double what I sold it for. One of the only guns I should not have parted with.

Walked onto a group of 4 pigs in open forest, dumped 3 in 2 seconds, literally. Then came across a mob of 8 pigs feeding close together, and dumped 4 in a similar time. I had that beauty for 40 years and it took pride of place on my gunrack, but Aunty Jacinda took a fancy to it, so I graciously handed it over.

    The other was a Remington Mohawk in .308, bolt action, 5.5 lbs in weight, 18.5 inch barrel, 37 inches overall (note the similarity?) and more accurate than a really, really accurate rifle. Why did I sell it? Don't know! Dumb decision.
    yes - Benelli semi auto shotgun- Miroku side by side 12 gauge - and stolen by Jacinda my beloved 742 woodmaster

    Had a heap of nice rifles & looking back now, the only real regret I have is parting with my early Model 94 30-30. I've often thought of others as I see similar rifles but it always comes back to that 94. Not keen on the current prices being asked for some that were not a patch on mine condition wise. I shall not have any more regret as I don't intend on selling anymore loved ones
