Both my .22 MP5 knock offs, GSG 5 and an “H&K”. Threads like this make me think of selling them.

You will think I'm crazy but my useless entry is a HK Mark 23 pistol. It's way too big to be useful especially with my small hands but it is just too cool and the price was right...

The Can Cannon is utterly useless but it puts the biggest smiles on people's faces.

Quoted: Anyone recommending a Glock over a CZ-75 variant is not someone whose recommendations are worth consideration. There are a few reasons it is one of the most widely copied and cloned pistols ever made, and none of them are that it sucks. View Quote While I've jumped off the striker fired bandwagon now, I don't necessarily agree that the CZ-75 is the best option for hammer fired. Surely the biggest CULT following, that's for sure. They're fine guns, don't get me wrong, but the best? No. |

My Glocks have been incredibly reliable, much more so than most other brands I've owned. I just don't want a striker fired pistol anymore. |

Quoted: Why the FFS? It was a legitimate question. By single action do you mean a 1911-style or an old cowboy gun like a peacemaker? I don't agree with either, btw, just asking out of curiosity. DA/SA is the way, especially the newer LEM/etc styles. View Quote I prefer DA/SA to striker guns. Many don't, it's a matter of preferece. SA is objectively the best FCG |

Got me one of those life cards in 22mag, absolutely pointless but fun to play with.

Quoted: Quoted: Learn about ballistic door breaching, you’ll never call one useless again…. Never breached a door with it yet. I’ve never shot anybody with my Colt 6920 either, doesn’t make it useless though does it? Seriously though- a fucking Tac 14 is 99.9% the same as the cut down SBS 870 Police Magnum I had, which I carried for breaching doors. I even bought my own AOW 870 before Shockwaves and TAC14’s ever existed….and could have saved about $300 plus a $5 NFA stamp if they had been around when I got the AOW. Shockwaves and TAC-14’s are pretty useful in the right situations. |

I bought an Altor in .380 and then, with a SOT friend, redesigned it into an AOW. It's still stupid, but slightly less so.

How about the Bushmaster ARM Pistol? Sold it because it would not run well…. Damned cool design, but utterly unreliable. At the time I didn’t know how to fix or tweak any guns, but I am pretty damned certain the 25 year later me could have it working a lot better pretty easily, even if it meant redesigning parts…. They still command a premium from collectors as well.
Heard they might be being made again, but WA commies have closed the door on that possibility…. Never sell the cool ones! |

Quoted: Page 5 and no Judges? https://i.postimg.cc/Xqqn6X2V/IMG-20190302-182727757-01.jpg Are they useful now? View Quote You are the first to admit that you bought one. Congrats. |

Quoted: AMT Automag II ETA: I was inspired to dig it out of the safe. Probably hasn't been fired in over a decade. https://i.imgur.com/pWG0saC.jpg View Quote Had two, both were problem children. The mag catch height on the magazine was wrong and it would cause misfeeds galore on both and I broke a firing pin on one. Damn shame, they were fun. |

I had one of the first-generation Tec-22 Scorpions. It really was a fun plinker but had a bad habit of doubling, tripling, and on one occasion about a 10-shot burst. I sent it back after seeing a recall notice in the American Rifleman and they fixed it. I got spooked for some reason before the 94 ban and sold it.
The other would be a Taurus PT22 with a tip-up barrel. It was a fun range toy but that 30-pound double-action-only trigger pull made sure it stayed in its case in the back of the gun closet. |

Mossberg Shockwave. Not completely useless just mostly. It rides under my seat.

View Quote I’ve owned two and have one now (both 3rd gen). They will not run with old Wolf ammo from like 15-20 years ago. Other than that, extremely reliable. I love carrying mine around the woods - very cool gun. |

I didn't lose any money. But if they are not full-auto they are heavy and boring. Ok, it's cool these are real easy to convert to full-auto. So wait for the apocalypse and convert it. |
