Re: Guns you traded that you wish you still had?
I saw one of those D2000's for sale recently.
Are those the rifles that Kimber made and Daewoo imported or something like that?

Re: Guns you traded that you wish you still had?
No pictures of them but the only three I have not managed to recoupe since selling.
WW2 German K43 (normally a G43 but K43 because made by Walther), sold it way too cheap 20 years ago. Would like to have it again. Owned it for 10 years before that.
Bright Nickel Hi-Power from early 80's, Belgian made- sold to pay the taxman in 1993--along with my Belgian made FAL 50.00 (which I have since found one and purchased again).
A norinco made folding stock AK in .223 that I bought new in the 80's along with my current norinco AKM. Sold it to raise money for home purchase.
Thats about it, working on one of the guns right now...may get it reasonable but have to put some work into it. All three have jumped in price significantly.

I wish I hadn't sold my Garand. That's the only one I really miss. I kinda miss the HK just because it was my first pistol, but not as much as I miss the M1

I don't sell guns I like. If I needed money I'd find another way.

Re: Guns you traded that you wish you still had?
My gun room has been like the hotel California - you can check in but you can never leave.
Haven't sold a single one.
That may change soon because I have been cataloging them and it's gotten kinda ridiculous - but I can't decide what I want to part with....

Don't bother, Viv. If you're like me, it'd be easier to try to decide which of my kids to sell. Just keep the list updated for insurance purposes, and take care of all the babies.

Re: Guns you traded that you wish you still had?
The first 3 Ruger SP101`s I had and sold. Never paid over $375.00 for any of them. Now they are $100.00 more. They are heavy for a 5 shot but...indestructible. I probably would like a 357 SP101 in 3 or 4 inch barrel. It might justify the weight.
I know not what the future holds, but I know Who holds the future.

Re: Guns you traded that you wish you still had?
M&P 40, which was my first handgun
I sold my first gun, but was able to get it back a few years later.
Not a gun, but I regret trading Costellow my T-1.

Remington nylon 66.
Was my first rifle, a hand me down from my brother. Sold it when I was 15, bugged the guy enough to sell it back to me at the same price I sold it to him at.
He had never shot it, still had mud on the buttpad from when I sold it.
