selling and rebuying same gun

[rich h]

in 1989 I took purchase of a shiny new sportmatch GC2 number 117 when I packed in shooting in 1993 I sold it. after getting back into shooting 8 years ago I've always regretted selling it I've even look at buying one a few year back. then I read a add on here last year for a gc2 number 117 which was my original one I had sold I couldn't believe it I just to have it back after 23 years
It still shoots as good as any of the new guns I have

I bought a beaten up old BSA Challenger off a guy and had it reblued and tuned by SFS and refinished the stock myself, I put more rabbits in the pot with that rifle than any other I've ever owned, I traded it in in the end and regretted it a few months later, it took me years to find another Challenger, which I've managed to do and it's been done up to the same spec as the one I traded it.

I also had a lovely early Prosport that I sold to Alister on here and missed it so much, luckily he asked me a few years later if I wanted to buy it back which I did without hesitation, I still have it now and is the pride of my collection.

I can go one better, I actually sold my S400k 3 or 4 times to different people and somehow ended up buying it back everytime

Sold and bought many S200, s, HW95, s, TX200, s and probably more.

Been chasing my first .22 Fenman, a smashing air rifle with a great Hyedua stock, Serial No. 12400. Bought in 2000 from Stephen J Fawcett, Lancaster.
So far no joy.

... and I am biding my time to buy back my walnut stocked SFS tuned genuine Brum-built Webley & Scott Longbow, too. Trouble is, I do know where it is, and who has it, but the current seller just won't sell back to me, will you ???

not sold and bought back. when i got burgled my brockock safari was nicked. a few days later one was advertised for sale so i went and bought it.
got it home and checked the serial number, it was mine.
the bloke that nicked never got done for it, no matter how many times i told the police its a firearms offence. he got done for having a garage full of stolen motorbikes. karma.

Many years ago when we were allowed to shoot and own Brocock pistols without any problems I sold a lovely pistol to a chap up north, Cannot remember his name. A fair amount of time later I quite fancied the same model again. Seeing one advertised I promptly purchased it, only to find out it was the same gun I had sold on previously. The original purchaser had sold it on to somebody else and then I had bought it back. Strange world !!!!

I once bought a FX Cyclone off a chap, he was getting a new Daystate mk4, he rang me a couple of weeks later asking "would i sell the Cyclone back to him", his need was greater than mine, he couldn't get on with the Daystate. I sold it back to him, it still had the same air in it.

Member on here gingernut and myself have a habit of buying and selling the same guns back and forth between us, especially Schimels, an HW 50, and various others. Tracked down my favourite SIG P210-5 to a guy in Johannesburg, going to look him up next time I go back.
