Taurus PT-145 Millenium Pro. It started having the light primer strikes. I cleaned out the firing pin. Still happened. I didn't feel like sending it back and waiting for warranty work.

Walther ppk/s. Great shooter, too heavy!

Walther PPK/S.....never was reliable
S&W 642............couldn't hit the broad side of the barn......from inside
Bersa Thunder .380........too small a caliber
Any Glock..............hated the grip angle
Para LDA...........too long of a reset on the trigger

Don't have them any longer, don't miss them, I'm expensively learning what I like, and feel comfortable with.

Ruger Mini-14, that gun was the biggest piece of junk I have ever taken to the range and couldn't get the gun to hold better than a 8 inch group. No one else at the range could do better, later days at the range my friends couldn't either nor could my family members...

GOOD RIDDANCE!

I got a better shooting AK ;)

I felt the same way about my Mini-14. I was glad to get rid of it. I purchased a Colt AR-15 SP-1 and 20 years later sold it to purchase a Bushmaster Varminter .223. I'll never sell that gun, it's a great shooter.

I had a Walther TPH in .22lr that never, not ever, not one $&$%*@$ time fired a whole magazine without jamming. I tired different ammo, three or four different mags, half a dozen fluffs and more buffs. Springs? Tried that. More lube, nope. Less lube, nope. Hated that gun.

Sold it for $40 two months later. After about every box and a half of ammo, it started failing to feed, until I disassembled it and S-T-R-E-T-C-H-E-D the recoil spring.

POS. Never again.

LOL...Same here, except I paid $50 and was able to sell it for $50.

Walther PPK/S

Even after factory re-work it still hung up on about one round in six.

Raven .25 - just like everyone else, couldn't hit the side of a barn at 1 foot. The odd thing about it, sold it to a biker who loved it & thought it was the greatest thing in the world!

Sometimes one man's "junk" is another man's treasure, I picked up a P-11 for $145, massaged it a little...and now it's one of my main carry's, 500 rds JHP & FMJ and not a hiccup.
