What's your "never buy" gun?

[silicosys4]

Anything with a Nazi proof mark.

Interesting.
I have an old PPK I picked up from a pawn shop,
Thought I was ok, no proof marks like that, etc...
Well, wouldn't you know it...
They didn't mark the SS PPK's with any nazi proofs. The telling is in the serial numbers and location of said numbers.
Come to find out I now own a genuine variation 6 WW2 SS ppk.
Don't quiet know how I feel about that, since I'm of Polish descent and have family that were murdered in Europe during that period. Guns are just tools though. Apparently its worth some money, even without the original grips and no magazine.

I don't know that there are any guns that I say I'd never buy, hell...after shooting my brother in laws hipoint, I kind of want one now.
Heck, I would love to shoot that WW2 Japanese pistol that had the exposed sear, I believe...the one that would go off if touched wrong.
I'd own just about any gun as long as it wasn't illegal for me to own, and wasn't dangerous to shoot.

Glocks, just too damn ugly.

 

[BigG]

Ruger.

 

[Grassman]

I will never buy a gun I can't afford.

 

[TennJed]

hi point,jennings, tiny pocket pistols,derringers & similar tiny guns,& any similar low quality & useless firearms.Ban them, i wouldnt miss a beat....

I personally love collecting small guns. When they decide to ban the ones you like, please don't ask to borrow one of mine. Hate for you to have to resort to a useless gun just because they banned yours

I will never buy a gun I can't afford.

:lol: great answer

Glock 21,i'm a huge Glock fan and own several but the 21 is not comfortable to me at all. I bought one a few years ago and sold it after a couple months,i tried to get used to it but its just not a good gun for me.

Oh yea....thanks for reminding me...I need to amend my earlier post, lol...

Bought a glock 21 off of the internet, when I picked it up from my FFL I knew as soon as I picked it up that It was not staying. I gave it away to my brother in law before I even shot it. Too big for my small hands, but dang it was accurate once we took it out.... Won't own another, just doesn't work for me.

Picked up a G19 a few weeks later, I like it more than I thought I was going to.

 

[RetiredUSNChief]

Glocks.

Because I think they're uglier than sin.

I grant that they're otherwise a top-notch pistol, with no real faults I can see in terms of operability, reliability, and accuracy.

I just won't buy one because I think they're coyote-ugly.

 

[MinnesotaFats]

Taurus, Rossi, or any other gun that is "hit or miss" in quality.

 

[JockeyShifter]

I say no to Philippine and Brazilian guns. Just don't like the standards used there

 

[zxcvbob]

Another Taurus. Once is more than enough.

Yeah, me too.

 

[Chuck53]

Old school wood stock single shot 12 and 20 gauge shotguns. Waaay more pain than they're worth.
Taurus ANYTHING.
S&W semi auto handguns, NOT because if their performance, just hate the triggers.
Hi-point and Jimenez goes IMO almost without mentioning.
And honestly probably a few more I can't thing of right now, will add later if I think of them!

 

[Barry the Bear]

Every model of glocks,high points, and dare I say 1911s that are not colts

 

[Agsalaska]

First I must say I own both of the guns I am about to mention. I own both a Bushmaster AR-15 and a Norinco AK-47.


Modern Sporting rifles. What the libs like to call 'assault rifles' I just have absolutely no interest in them whatsoever. They do absolutely nothing for me. In fact my AR-15 is not even put together. Give me a Weatherby or a Winchester any day. Or, better yet, give me a 10/22 or 121 The Fieldmaster. I just don't get the thrill of them. I would much rather go to the field with a lever action Marlin or an older Weatherby.

 

[stompah]

Any recent manufacture blinged out gun in a 'presentation box', plus they are almost always in .22lr.

 

[Agsalaska]

The fact that it is in 22lr is its only redeeming quality.

 

[vamo]

I don't have a "never buy" as long as the price as right anyway. 50 bucks for a high point would be worth it, the 200 they usually ask not so much; especially with the value to be had in the 300 neighborhood.

 

[Murphy4570]

Flimsy and crappy quality guns come to mind. I like simple and reliably. Might be why I own a couple of Mosin Nagant rifles!

One gun I know I will NEVER want to purchase is actually American made: The MAC-10 and MAC-11.

 

[Newcatwalt]

Any Glock....

 

[Capt Quahog]

~ SIG Sour pistols

~ Anything made by "Armi San Marco"

~ Universal M1 Carbine

~ Franchi LAW-12 / SPA-12 shotgun

~ Any firearm made by the French

~ All Commemorative COLT revolvers and automatics

~ Recently produced Marlin 336, M1894, etc.

~ Any firearm labeled Harrington & Richardson from the 1970s onward.

There's more . . . but I need to go get some fresh coffee.

 

[HKGuns]

Why gLoCk of course.

 

[charlie fox]

Any revolver that shoots .410...the answer to a question that was never, NEVER asked.

 

[skydive25]

Glocks. Why pay the extra $$ for the name ? My SR9 chews up Federal 9BPLE with no problems.......

 

[Armymutt]

Ruger - I hold grudges.
