Here,s another spin from ATR,s thread.I,ll start by sayin I wish I would have bought the Remington Classic when it was chambered in the .220 Swift about 25 years ago.I was expecting it to have special engraving and such and was dissapointed when it didn,t and passed.

Also I wish I would have bought alot of flintlocks back when they were bein produced like the Pa Hunters,Renegades,CVA Mountain Rifles etc.

I passed way too many good deals in years gone buy. One great one was a Rem. 1100 with trap and skeet barrels for $200. Buddy had it and only 3-4 boxes of shells fired thru it.

Passed on a Weatherby Athena 20ga. O/U several years ago that I wish had come home with me.

Also passed on a pair of Model 94 Trail's Ends in .25-35 and .38-55 about 2 weeks before Winchester/USRAC went belly up.

A coworker had me put a rifle on consignment for him. It was a 1927A1 Thompson semi-auto version. 2 20 round stick magazines and a 75 (?) round drum magazine. He wanted $250!!!!!! At the time I didn't have $250 for a rifle. Looking back.......
