Which do you regret? Selling the gun or buying the wedding ring?

Sigh...
FN FAL Rhodie
Unabused LM5
Luger P-08
Broomhandle Mauser
Tuarus m689 .357
S&W Victory rollie
.303 Long Lee

Need to scale down, since I need to move.
I got most of them for a steal when people did not want to migrate to white cards, so I will never again get them at those prices. LM was bought for R5500 ….

Guns I regret selling (But I'm glad about the replacements though):
FN FAL (Sold to fund a hunting rifle as I already had a LM5)
Colt 1911 Series 70 (Sold to fund a CZ Shadow)

I have to say I regret selling the 1911 most....

I hope you're still happily married!

I recently bought my brother's Rossi 38 snubbie as my second handgun and quickly regretted the decision (I bought it because I couldn't afford a second glock at the time)

But the way things are going with the difficulty in licensing and SAPS' agendas, I am quite chuffed because the license is valid for 10 years and when I get my Glock 26/17 next year on DSS I will be super stoked with my 3rd handgun.

A Ruger RSM 458 Lott. Sold ( age 19) to fund tickets to fly and live in U.K for 3 years.

I regret selling my HK P7K3, in 9mm Short with a .22LR conversion . Came as a combo.
and a Franchi SPAS 12 :-(

Was offered an obscene amount for them, and at the time was struggling to get out of the money pit my ex-wife had dug.

I can feel you on that one!

Hmmmm I've got five -

Ruger RSM 416 Rigby
FN FAL with 16" barrel which was mint
My immaculate & tricked out LM6
West German P226
West German P228

I sold most to fund my current collection, and some of those are going to my grave with me
