Frequently Asked Questions

What are the most common reasons people regret selling firearms?

Common reasons include selling family heirlooms, parting with classic firearms that are no longer readily available, and regretting sales made during hard times when the firearm's value has since skyrocketed. Sentimental attachment and the loss of unique features also contribute significantly to seller's remorse.

Which military surplus rifles are frequently regretted by owners?

The Mosin-Nagant and Lee-Enfield Number 4 are frequently regretted. Their initial low cost and abundant cheap ammunition for the Mosin, and the Lee-Enfield's exceptionally smooth bolt action, made them popular. Both have seen their surplus availability dry up, increasing their value and desirability.

Why is the Colt Python considered the most regretted sold firearm?

The Colt Python is highly regretted due to its old, hand-fitted construction, exceptional beauty, and one of the finest double-action triggers ever produced. Pre-2005 models, especially older blue variants, have seen their values triple or quadruple, leading owners to deeply regret selling them when they were just another revolver.

What makes imported firearms like the AK-47 and Steyr AUG so regrettable to sell?

Import restrictions have significantly limited the availability of classic AK-47 variants and Steyr AUG models. Coupled with the end of cheap surplus ammunition for the AK and the massive price increases for both, these firearms have become difficult and expensive to replace, leading to significant regret among former owners.
