>why didn't I buy an AES10B When they were 500 dollars
What regrets do you have /k/? Deals you passed up? Guns you sold? Tell us!

Anther one I have is my local sporting goods store had a Benelli M4 marked down to 1k flat. That one hurts sometimes too.

I'm torn between a Walther PPQ with rebate that is probably a bit too big to carry, or a lightly used H&K P2000sk that is more carry-sized but the trigger isn't as good, and I can't afford both, and they are about the same size.

So i'm going to regret missing out on one of them.

I impulse purchased my first AR a few months ago. A Del-Ton DT Sport Lite for $440. I thought I was buying the regular version but it wasn't until I got home and was fingerfucking it when I thought, "Huh, isn't there supposed to be a forward assist here?" Then it hit me. Felt like a complete dumbass.

Not buying a really nice k31 a year ago for 300

I regret not buying an M44 back in '14 as my first gun because I thought I was better than doing that and got an AR instead.

Befriended a Pacific theater WWII vet, gifted him a UFH 10" M1 bayonet after he told me a story about using one on a Jappo trying to sneak up on his hole. Turns out he's got a .45 caliber Luger that's extrenely rare. He was 92, kids wanted to put him in a home and he obviously couldn't bring his Luger with him. One day I come home and his chair he always sat in on the porch is gone, fuckers moved him before I could even say goodbye. Cunts probably took that goddamn bayonet and didn't know what to do with it. It was in beautiful, original condition, I loved that thing. So I lost my beautiful bayonet and the rarest goddamn German handgun ever fucking made. Makes me angry just typing this, fuck this. Time for another beer.

I do not lie, this is a true story

>>34717751
Bought a new Arsenal SLR 104 gun in January and still haven't fired it yet
>>
>>34718346
Meh. You could do worse. $440 with no forward assist. Majority of the time you never even use it. More comfortable to sling carry without a forward assist if you're left handed. Don't be too sad.
>>
>>34718831
No shell deflector or dust cover either. But yeah, it's not so bad. I just felt bad that I could've gotten a M&P sport II FOR LIKE $50 more. At least Del-ton seems to be one of the better budget AR companies.

Didn't get a vz58 with 5 mags and mag pouches for $400, they're going for $700+ now
>>
>>34718995
Oooh. I know this feel all too well. I was considering it, but decided to take a trip to Japan with my ex instead. I was reluctanct because mags seemed hard to find.

The Ol' Garbage Rod's bolt broke on me, should I buy a replacement guide rod, firing pin and cocking piece or should I just get a whole new bolt?
>>
>>34719794

depends, if you want to save money those parts are a lot cheaper than a complete bolt, but if you buy a complete bolt you'll gain a couple spare parts
>>
I wish I had the money to jump on a PSL when they were the same price as a WASR.
>>
>>34718321
PPQ and P2000 are for fags.

Actually, I can't think of any gun that starts with a P that isn't shit.
>>
>>34718072
That hurts me and I didn't even have a chance to buy it.
>>
>>34719829
Might save up for a complete bolt honestly, I fucked up putting the bolt back together, the firing pin won't screw all the way into the cocking piece and I sort of assumed it was just the nugget being a nugget so I took a big ass wrench I have to the guide rod and I fucking broke it. Now the guide rod is fucked and I can't get the firing pin out and even if I do the threads on the cocking piece are probably fucked.

Yea probably gonna have to buy a whole new bolt

I own a shitload of guns and have bought pretty much everything I ever wanted. I'm spending more now than the last 5 years. I just picked up four of those $700 Larue rifles because I doubt that deal will be back anytime soon.

In the early 2000s I was buying 7.62x39 for $60 a case and 525 packs of .22 for $6.88 at Walmart. I always had more than I needed but I never stacked it as deep as I could. If I could go back I'd buy 25+ cases of each at those prices.

I did however buy a fuckload of 9mm for $4.50 a box of 50 when Dicks firesaled all the old Galyans handgun ammo. I had just bought a machine-gun though, so it made sense.

You won't regret it.

Being out of the country when K31s were $300 with a kit and sling

>>34717751
I regret not buying a fuck load of nuggets when they were cheap as fuck.
>>
>sold handnugget for $110 years ago
>theyre $350 now
never selling a gat again
>>
not stockpiling 7n6
not buying AK's when they were cheap
not buying assorted surplus

good thing AR's are better and dirt cheap now
pistols don't change that much so meh
>>
Wanting to buy a ptr91
Should I go for it?
>>
>>34722394
I don't wanna end up itt
>>
I bought one of those aes10b. And I bought one of those $400 vz2008s. And I bought two of those $180 yugo SKS cabelas had that one time. And I bought two of those $80 nuggets.

My only regret is not buying more of them.
>>
I got mine without a bipod for $550 in August of 2013

I joined the /k/ CMP club but never got the money together for a Garand.

>>34718321
Do you mean a P2000? The PPQ and P2000SK are nowhere near the same size. Fuck subcompacts. The USPc/P2000 are the perfect size compact handgun. P99 > PPQ, anyway.
>>
>>34722556
And, a week ago, I bought a WGRS-54 for my Savage 64 and fucked up the sight irreparably while trying to install it by getting impatient filling at the sight base and trying to pound it in with a brass punch. So not only am I poor, I'm a gorilla idiot who can't take care of things I buy myself for my birthday.
>>

I got my Ithaca for 300 syrupbucks. I rarely see them for anything more than that. They're everywhere. Where do you live?
>>
>>34722276
>not stockpiling 7n6
Eh, it's corrosive but extra good at killing stuff.
>not buying AK's when they were cheap
They're still kinda cheap but no more $300 SAR-1s so OK.
>not buying assorted surplus
Sure. You can't buy new so this was the option.
>good thing AR's are better and dirt cheap now
OK.
>pistols don't change that much so meh
Awww. Didn't from the above mistakes.
