       I really miss that gun?

       I was once told by a very old man, that his GREATEST regrets,
       were the guns he had let getaway!
       IF, I only had back ALL the guns I have sold or traded away!
       One of my biggest regrets was a Ruger Mk1, that I sold to my Dad
       for $100. He wanted a 22lr handgun to shoot with my brother.
       This was my very 1st handgun I had purchased. I had owned it for
       over 30 years. But he was pushing 80 years old. I had rarely
       shot the gun. And I didn't want him to go looking for a gun at
       his age. I figured, when he passes away, I would get it back.
       And I thought I would sell him a $300 + gun for $100, would be
       giving him a GREAT deal. But about a month after he got the gun,
       I asked him how he liked it, he said he had traded it at a
       gunshow for another gun. He said, " did you know that gun was
       worth over $300"? I was so upset, I could have almost cried!

       That really stinks.
       I've sold and traded a handful of guns. One I regretted, bought
       it back from the person I sold it to for the same price, and
       kept it for about a year and a half. Just sold it again recently
       and so far no regrets.
       The only other regret was trading my JCP for a Mosin. I actually
       got a really good deal, so that wasn't the issue. At the time I
       was shooting rifles more than pistol so it made sense. I ended
       up selling the Mosin and made out pretty well, but I still miss
       the JCP. Doubt I will replace it though, would probably go with
       the 45 next
