If I dig deep down into this question, I will need a shrink to get back to normal. Can’t do it.

+1 I don't know that I've ever sold a gun that I was happy not to have anymore.

A 4 digit Inland M1 Carbine.
It funded a Thermal Imaging Pulser for hog problems. I asked to have first right if he ever decided to sell it, he called me w a $5,900 price tag. Too steep for me

I have a long list, but among them are my H&K 91, my 1970s era AR-15, my Polytech Legends Series AK-47, and my WWI German Mauser 98. I could go on and on.

I had an 8MM Mauser. At the time I was living in a state that only allowed Slug hunting. My brother was interested in using the rifles for hunting in the state he lived in. So I sold it to him. Wish I have kept it.

I had a Stoeger .22 cal. Luger pistol that I sold to help me buy a used S&W M-59 back in '86, I think. I had bought the Luger in a local pawn shop and it had a tendency to jam. I didn't know much of anything about them at the time and didn't know anyone who did and it was before the internet. So, I got rid of it for what I had in it. Cannot remember how much, but I'm thinking about $75, including the original box. I guess that is about the only one I really regret selling.

The only gun I can remember selling was a '70s model winchester 94 in 30-30. At the time it went to a fine deserving gentleman who needed it. But my collection seems incomplete without it.
I could wish a lot of things on my worst enemy but neuropathy ain't one of them.

I sold a few through the years like a Sako 270 deluxe which I replaced lately with a std grade. The only one I cannot replace is my first 22. I sold it to my brother when we were young. He thinks my dad bought it for him. It was a Marlin Glenfield single shot that you had to cock. It was accurate enough with 22 shorts. Had a Ruger 77 tang in 22-250 pencil barrel that was a tack driver. Needed the money at that time. I still enjoy buying a gun! I’m more into customizing guns now as my machining and stock making skills are good now. Life goes on!

I have sold very few guns.
That being said, I “gave” my brother a Bushmaster M17. I wouldn’t mind having that.
I traded in a Ruger Redhawk 5” .44 Mag that I wouldn’t mind having back, but I prefer the Freedom Arms .454 Casull Premier Grade I traded it for and the .454 Toklat I also have.
