What guns did you buy and then never shoot again/sell?
Tavor SAR— twice Springfield Armory Hellion In fact, most bullpups fall into this for me. Like the concept but not the non-ambiness and weight. Any and all 22lr guns. I regret buying my 22 silencers as well. Every one seems cheap, is problematic and spits shit out when firing. A gun tinkerers delight but thats not my niche. I HKP7M8–well, i didnt hate them. Had two. Love the design and look but just wasn’t fun to shoot or train with for carrying. Cool guns i bought for $650 and sold for 1200 to fund who knows what. Ruger #1 in 308: just didn’t do anything for me compared to my AR10. Pretty much every revolver, all have been sold. |

Walther PPK and P7M8. The Walther was a jam o matic. The H&K’s gas system got too hot to comfortably shoot for more than a couple of magazines. I’m sure there are others but those two stick out.

Sig P226 Legion SAO for sure. I tried to like that gun, I really did. I liked the trigger and the sights were pretty sharp, disliked pretty much everything else about it.
Close second was an HK p30 LSV3. I was all jazzed up about that one. That was the gun that taught me I hate sa/da with decockers. They may do both actions, but aren't good at either of them. Also the mag release just wasn't for me on that one. Great ergonomics on the grip though. |

Revolvers. I don’t exactly hate them, but I always wind up selling them.
Only one I regret selling is my early GP100, 6" stainless. |

CZ 600 Trail. Just couldn't enjoy the stock. If it had a pic rail back end so that I could swap to a folding stock, I would have kept it.

USP full-size .40.
It worked great, I never had a single malfunction, but it could barely hit a barn from the inside. Least accurate pistol I’ve ever had, and I’ve had Lorcin, Davis, Cobra, Intratec, Makarov, and Raven pistols. Maybe it was just my particular example, I don’t know, but that was the one and only .40 I ever owned. Soured me on the whole caliber/chambering. |

The Ruger American. Have had 2. The first a 22-250 that I gave to my grandfather-in-law after buying it. It ended up having feeding issues that Ruger has sent 3 different mags trying to fix and it still hangs up.
I bought a 7mm-08 about 6 months ago thinking It would grow on me. I sold it a couple weeks ago. It shot great but they are made so cheap and ugly. For the life of me I can't understand how people think they are a good gun. I really think most people that do don't know any better. |

P7M8: bought 1, traded into another. Traded one off. Kept one for whatever reason. Practically its heavy, limited capacity, parts/mags expensive, my P365 is a better shooter.
Aug: loved how compact it was, didn't care for the trigger and couldn't move past it. Other issues were famiiarity/training related i.e. slow reloads. |

Luger P08, 9mm. I've had three - all of them matching numbers. All of them felt great in the hand and pointed to the target instinctively; but required high power ammo to cycle. With the first two, I felt that maybe I just hadn't given the gun a fair chance. When I got to the third, I finally became convinced that the P08 was designed as a military gun and for shooting mil spec ammo. I broke even on each one when I sold it.
It's a beautiful and iconic design, but the modern Sig Sauer and Glock pistols are more ammo tolerant. Were I wealthy, I'd get a P08 as a safe queen. MHO, YMMV, etc. |

A few come to mind.
Glock 36. Unreliable and my pinky would get pinched between the grip and mag extension when I fired it. Quickly sold. HK-91. Finally got one and was underwhelmed. SCAR 17. Cool looking but that was about it. Trigger sucked and at the time mags were over $100 each. It didn't do anything a decent AR-10 couldn't do. Colt .38 Super. A jam-o-matic. It could not get through a single mag without choking. I sent it off to Wilson for their Reliability Package and to add some decent sights. |

Ruger mini-30, first gen/late 80s.
Miniute of man at 100yds. But it does go bang every time with Wolf,Tula and every brand of 7.62x39 I've tried. Better since Ruger started making 30rd mags. Trunk gun. |

If we can include suppressors I'd say my Surefire Ryder 9. It's a malfunction inducing POS with anything but +P ammo. It's been back to Surefire twice and they refuse to do anything, insisting that I need to keep using +P. I see they tried to sell the Ryder for while with a tri-lug adaptor and now they don't even sell it anymore. My other one is a 556 suppressor in general. My sample is pretty old as it's a Surefire FA556-212, but I wish I would have skipped a 556 suppressor entirely and just gotten somethine for a .30 cal. My next suppressor purchase will be a flowthrough .30 cal.

Keltec Sub2000
Keep in mind I did not have super high expectations like it was going to be the ultimate backpack gun or something. I got a really good deal on a used gen1 probably 6 years ago thinking this will be fun as hell. I absolutely did not enjoy it one little bit. I bought a heavy charge handle and bolt buffer from Mcarbo and that helped a bit but it still wasn't something I could get into. I ended up trading it for 1200 rounds of 5.56 and 800 rounds of 9mm. |

So this one will sound weird, but the SCAR 17. It's one of my favorite rifles, but it is extremely overpriced for what it is and feels cheap compared to the CZ Bren 2 or B&T APC rifles. I love the gun but it's a $2500 rifle overpriced because it says FN on it.
Tavor X95 - I love the Tavor 7 so I bought an X95. Worse trigger, gritty action (T7 is extremely smooth), and wasn't a fan of the ergos. HK MR556 - a dream rifle of mine. I ended up handling one and it didn't feel any different than a decent AR. |

PTR-91: Reliable and accurate rifle with a great trigger, but I cannot get myself to even tolerate the charging system and lack of a last round hold open. Mine's getting traded for an FN-49.
 AKs: Had both a Polish and Romanian underfolder, the former assembled by My Guns. No problems with either, but the ergonomics are absolute crap. Shot off the rest of the thousand round case and sold both for a decent margin. HK VP9: Not terribly accurate, crap trigger, and I had trouble maintaining a two-handed grip on the thing, something I've been able to do easily on any other pistol I've shot. |

Two come to mind.
H&K USP9. Bought it used, kind of on a whim, to see what all the fuss was about. Nothing bad about it but nothing remarkable either. I thought it was to big, to blocky, just an odd shape. Didn't due anything my other nines didn't do just as well. CZ 75B. Another purchase to see what the deal is. I don't get it. Single action trigger horrid. Double is acceptable but nothing more. The fan boys sing the praises but apparently that's after a $300 upgrade from Cajun Gun Works. Jury is still out of this one. |
