I bought a new Taurus .22 and stuck it in a drawer loaded and when i finally got around to shooting it, it would feed properly and by that time the warranty was kaput. I traded it off with a little cash for a S&W .38 revolver. I won't buy another Taurus gun again. Second gun was a Khar .40 semi pistol. I wanted to get away from all the plastic and this particular gun was all steel. The problem? Too heavy.

No. Now if the question was..."Is there a gun you regret not buying sooner?"...Yes. It would've saved me money in what I lost in that horrible boating accident at Lake Dirty Bird.

Yup, it was a Para Ordnance LDA .45. Thing ran like crap. Sent it back for repairs and it still ran like crap.

I had one of these too, a TAC-4. But after replacing the mag springs with ones from Wolff it ran perfectly. I had 5 mags, the original springs were 3 of one length and 2 of another, none worked properly.

Well I will tell you one I won't regret NOT buying today. I just offered a guy 850 for a stinkin 22. He would'nt take it.
He said he was selling it because he never used it. I told him he better put it back in his safe and love on it some more.

Makes me feel better that someone else is in the boat with me. Bought a Walter PPKS from this sight. I've never had one before, definitely not my type.

I have 10 of the things, both the PPK and PPK/S. Got 'em in .22LR, .32ACP, and .380ACP, blued, stainless, and a two tone. Guess you could say I like them.
