Gun I Don't Miss

My very first gun that I had was a Ruger P89 in 9mm. That gun jammed more times in a firing session than I can count. I promptly sold that paper weight to a friend and bought a brand new Glock 23. Never looked back.

G36, I had too many failure to feed issues. The previous owner wanted to buy it back and I was happy to sell it.

Well it probably won't satisfy your curosity but there's really nothing to tell.
I just didn't care for it, had my eye on something else so I sold it off to fund the next purchase.

I never had a gun that I didn't like. I have regretted giving or selling each and every one. Some of my guns "walked away by themselves" while I was in the military. (no one in family would admit to giving them or selling them). I miss them all even with their problems. I don't recall ever having a firearm that didn't work. I had a 22 single shot rifle that had a spike for a firing pin but it still worked. I also had a 44 mag revolver that had one bad chamber so that was the one I left empty. Those are the only problems I can recall in over 55 years of shooting.

Funny how that happens. The same thing happened to me.

I had gotten out of the Navy a few weeks early to attend my grandfather's funeral and enroll in college. My guns, a Model 94 .30-30, a .22 Winchester single shot rifle and a Remington 870 16 ga., were at my grandpa's cause I had lived with him for my last year in high school.

After the funeral, I noticed one of my uncles packing my guns into his car.

"Hey! Hold it right there! Where do you think you're going with my guns?" I yelled.

"Er, well, ahh, dad wanted me to have his guns." he stammered.

"Oh yeah? Well those three are my guns." And with that I took them out of his car and gave them to my dad to keep until I got back from getting my separation. Two weeks later, when I got back and asked my dad for them, he couldn't find them. Didn't know what happened to them. Go figure.

Grandpa only had one gun, a 300 Savage that I had given him a few years before. The Savage was no where to be found.

Thirty years later, at the funeral of an uncle, I saw my cousin packing the Savage into his car. "Where'd you get that?" I asked. My cousin said "This was [his] dad's deer rifle, grandpa gave it to him when he died." I told the story to my cousin and he offered me back the Savage with an apology. Instead I said "Aw shucks, it's not your fault, go ahead and keep the rifle, I don't hunt any more anyway.

Keltec P11. It jammed on me frequently, failed to feed, stove piped, etc. And the trigger pull- man, that was one long trigger pull. And hard. It would rub blisters on my fingers after only a few rounds. I had to wear band-aids on my index fingers just tom qualify. I was happy to be rid of it, even though I lost money.
