Firearms I Have Owned

[James Cook]

Can't for the life of me understand why a man would sell a perfectly good gun

When this popped up in in-box and I saw Toby 458, the first thought was - WOW! a three part mini-series! This should be great! LOL!!!!!

 

[Professor Mawla]

For you fellow gun nuts such as I. Here's an approximate list of firearms I have owned over the years. I'm sure I've missed a few, but this is a very close estimate. I'm sure these are rookie numbers for some of you, so let's see your list!

Since I started reading this again, I realized I missed a few on the first post, and added a few after. See new list. As you can see, there have been two 404s added. An Ed Brown 1911 I forgot. And a couple Ruger No1 270 Win. Also a few subtractions due to incorrect counting in the first post.

How many of these fine arms have you shot?

 

[sestoppelman]

I actually think I could better that list in quantity, if not quality, but to be honest I don't think my noodle could remember all those not written down somewhere!

 

[Tanks]

Boy that is a list I don't even what to think about let alone start. so I will do just the doubles.
* still own
...
Chapuis UGEX 9.3x74
...
*Chapuis RGEX 9.3x74
*Chapuis RGEX 9.3x74 (Yes I have two long story)

What is the difference between RGEX and UGEX?
Unfortunately, Chapuis does not believe in providing information through their web site.

 

[sestoppelman]

.45/70

"Winchester 95 x 1" ??????? ????

That would be a new one on me!

 

[TOBY458]

How many of these fine arms have you shot?

I shot most of them at least a few times. But not all of them. Out of the ones I still own, I've shot them all.

Winchester 1895 quantity 1

Now I see what you mean! I didn't see where you wrote 45/70 as well. That's a Single shot 1895.

 

[Bob Nelson 35Whelen]

@TOBY458
Shouldn't that be 1885 hiwall.
Bob.

Yes I guess so. It's been a long time ago, and I never really spent much time with it. Seems like it was a nice rifle though.

 

[MS 9x56]

That’s a lot of single shot rifles. You have my admiration as that is a lot of recoil to absorb.

 

[TOBY458]

@TOBY458
I truly am envious . However , I see no .338 Winchester Magnum , .423 Mauser or any of the .500 bores ( such as .505 Gibbs ) . Upcoming shopping goals , perhaps ?

There's always a 50 Caliber hole that needs to be filled!

 

[Gatorhunter1313]

I don’t even know if I could make a list. Living in Florida and being able trade guns so easily makes for a long list. I would be under estimating if I said I have bought sold and traded over 300 guns in the last 12 years. I tried to keep track for a while but I gave up with I filled a binder with guns and who i traded them to and for what or how much

 

[Alaska Luke]

Wow I thought I was crazy. Here are a few of mine.

SOLD

Glock 30/460 Rowland (conversion)
This is a very cool idea but it would not function reliably. I finally decided I did not want to spend $500 or more on ammo to work all the kinks out. My advice is don't.

Smith & Wesson Model 69 44 Mag
Very nice 5 shot revolver. I just shoot a lot better with a lighter 10 mm. So the 44 got sold to fund bear hunting gear.

Savage Alaskan 338 Winchester.
Once I realized that this rifle kicked about as hard as a heavier 375 Ruger I got rid of it. But the joke was on me. I got used to recoil and spent a lot of money shaving weight off the 375 Ruger!

That's about all I've sold. I do most of my hunting with a 308 and a 375 Ruger. I've been tempted by a 300 WSM but never got around to it.

when its so easy to trade off guns i couldn't stop. there have been so many times i have been at a range shooting something and ended up selling or trading someone on the range. i have not regretted selling off any of my guns except a very few. i wish i never sold my pair of remington 798's in 375 h&h and 458 win mag. they were my favorite rifles to shoot. i also had a taurus raging bull 454 casull i wish i still had. other than that i don't regret any of it. i have made money on 90% of the guns i have traded or sold so its a win win
