    3 guns you wished you'd not sold-on...

    I was looking through the forum and face book and I was thinking I had one of them... sorry I sold it.
    Then I thought what 3 air rifles I'm sorry I got rid of. So these are 3 of my all time D'oh moments...

    Falcon 12" Light Hunter (needed money as I got taken off shifts for a year)
    Daystate PH6 (as above)
    Sharps Ace (sold to fund a Rapid 7)
    "Every silver lining has a cloud!"

    HW77K, Rapid 7 MKI . HW97Colt GC, S&W 686 (CO2) HW75 . HW100K FSB

    I think I've had three of four, two of them in .20

    They are every bit as good as you think they are

    I have just the two guns that I’ve regretted selling.
    A mk1 Bsa Superstar in .177 , I had just bought a Rapid 7 and assumed I didn’t need another airgun .
    And a very nice AA S400 with a lovely tiger stripe walnut stock.
    I have since replaced the Superstar with a very nice mk1 in .177 from forum member WILBA :cool.
    I Have no regrets about selling some of my collection since.

    The three I've sold and regretted I've bought back again.

    Sold Steyr LG110 in favour of a Daystate Grand Prix. Eventually went back to the Steyr although I did like the GP.
    Sold Walther LP400 in favour or Steyr Evo E. Have just bought another LP400 last week. Have both now. (One will have to go...)
    My first air rifle, a BSA Mercury Challenger (aged 14). Sold or traded that in for an Air Arms Firepower (still around 14). I managed to aquire a boxed like new BSA Mercury Challenger a few years back and more recently an AA Firepower too.
    Steyr Challenge HFT - HW97K - BSA Mercury Challenger - Anschutz 9015 One - AA Pro Target - AA Pro Elite - ASI Paratrooper (R) - Walther LP500

    My Air arms Hi-Power . swapped not sold . Theoben gas ram fitted . 3-9x40 gold crown scope ,laser sight in the handguard at the front under the barrel and a full length gunsport moderator that went under the hand guard also. swapped it for a radio scanner .

    My Hw45 . not sold but given to a workmate to borrow then I moved away , I only remembered 3 years later and the pistol was gone . His son got caught with it at school and the police took it off him and it was destroyed . I never did follow it up.

    My Crosman 1377 . not sold but swapped for a barnett pistol crossbow.

    Wish Had them now but hey ho.
