Savage 99 in 300 SAV, with the cartridge counter hole in the receiver. I traded it for a Browning Buckmark, which I still have.

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger - or else it gives you a bad rash.

1903A3 with straight grip stock, 30-40 Krag with original full length stock, .38 Webley - all the rest I've sold I'm happy to have sold. And if I run across a Webley or Krag at a decent price I can always buy them.
i've sold a few and i traded a few. none of them guns i sold or traded, would make me tear up. except one, ruger srh(ss) with 7.5" barrel in 44 mag. boy that thing could shoot!!! i could do 1 1/2 - 2" at 100 yards(5 shots/off an old shovel handle minus the shovel). it was the early '90s, before a bog-pod and primos trigger sticks. the red dots just came too, i believe it aimpoint that i put on my old 44.
then came a divorce and i had to pay my lawyer so i sold her and and rest of my guns( except i have the win m94, 98 mauser, and mossberg m500 in 12ga).
Ad Reipublicae his Civitatum Foederatarum Americae, ego sum fortis et libero. Ego autem non exieris ad impios communistarum socialismi. Ora imagines in vestri demented mentem, quod vos mos have misericordia, quia non.
To the Republic of these United States of America, I am strong and free. I will never surrender to godless communist socialism. Pray to images in your demented mind, that you will have mercy, because i will not.

1957 Chevy, 1963 Nova Convertible, 1966 Mustang 2+2 fastback, 1971 Chevelle SS 454 4 speed, and several others. As for firearms that I wish I had not sold, Ruger SBH .44 magnum(my first centerfire handgun, Ruger Redhawk .44 magnum blue, and the absolute worst gun I ever sold (gun was great, selling was stupid) was a 1919 A-6 Browning Machinegun in .30-06 & cherry.
We have all suffered from our youth/stupidity. With age comes wisdom. I hope.

My avatar is almost a dead ringer for my little buddy Chico. Six pounds of mean that thought he was a Pit Bull. Miss that little guy.
Only vehicle I really regret letting go was my 1965 Dodge Coronet 330 with its 426 'wedge' and 727 Torqueflight transmission.
Only gun was the DCM Remington-Rand 1911A1 that I 'loaned' my father when he retired and my stepmother gave to her son when my father passed.

The only two guns I truely regret parting with were a early Colt LW commander and a mid 70's Rem bdl varmint 222 , that triple Duce was the most accurate rifle I've ever owned and what made me be ho hum about any rifle I've owned since.
If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
Colt Ace (22lr on 1911 frame) bought new in college ~1980. Sold ~ 1990. Still miss that pop gun !!!
