have you ever sold a gun, only to eventually buy the same one again?

Just curious to see how many people here sold something, then as time went by, you realized you really liked what you had before? I know remy, (i mean rabbit now) has done this like 3 times lol. and im currently thinking the same thing myself with a gun i sold.

Pretty much every gun I've owned, I've owned at one time before. In some cases, it was literally the same gun.

It happens when you're too poor to keep all of the guns you want at the same time

You're such a PSG whore Aqua. Then you had to go and cheat on it with an AR.

airsoft is the only way 99.9% of the public will ever get to own something like a psg1 or wa2000.... I'd have a tm psg1 if I could... that thing is just sexy looking.

I sold a Maruzen M870 2 years ago, and regretted it ever since, and I recently bought a CA870 with a broken M870 included, and I'm 99% sure the M870 is my old one...

Ive bought and sold so many hi capa and 1911s. Just when I think I have kicked them, I see one and the whole processes start all again.

Im on my 6th hi capa, and my 4th 1911.

I cant tell you how many sigs I have had over the years. I think I am at 7 now. Im pretty happy with my KSC P226

But I have interestingly bought back something I used to own. I bought some hi capa mags that used to be mine without knowing it haha.

Only did this with the P90. After that, I learned to either hold onto stuff, or not regret selling it. If you've ever experienced how difficult it is to sell some stuff on the classifieds, it's easier to hold back on impulse buys.

Nope. I'm not a gun collector. Buy a gun, learn everthing about it, then move on to the next one. So many guns, so little space.

Very true. You need to find an impulse buyer or sell it way cheap. Been on both ends of that. I kinda miss my tm deagle. I got too many m4/m16 in pieces. Need to put back together & brave the classifieds with them maybe that will fund a newer deagle
