Thread: The WORST Firearm You Ever Owned

Two rules I believe in when buy any sort of gear.

1, do the research first.
2, while you do not always get what you pay for, the lowest cost stuff is generally low end stuff.

By adhering to rule 1, I have so far avoided buying any bad guns. So I consider myself fairly lucky in that regard. I have had a JW15. It was definitely not a gun better than its price would suggest, poor trigger job, rough bolt, average to poor accuracy (althought I am sure there are many even less accurate gun around).

I have a factory 10/22. Its accuracy was average (actually no worse than the JW15). After a barrel upgrade it is as accurate as my other KIDDs.

Hard to fairly compare a Kidd to a std 10/22, even putting a kids barrel on over doubles the cost of the rifle.

I have a Kidd supergrade, amazing rifle but it's not really a 10/22- twin lugged action bedded into a dinner glass stock with a free floated barrel threaded in. Blindingly accurate but I could buy 8?10? 10/22 for the price.

blue and wood 10/22 is 600. The barrel upgrade was a whistlepig. cost me about 400 I think, about 2/3 the price of a super low end 10/22. A KIDD barrel is about 430 to 560 (see USAguns), still not quite twice the price of a 10/22.

a supergrade KIDD is about 2,000, three times the price of a 10/22. not bad at all considering the price difference of a Annie 1712 and a JW15.
