1.) Colt Diamondback snub nose .38 that I bought decades ago in a drug store at/near Richmond Mall (I bet they do not still sell these.)
2.) Marlin straight stock .22 lever action rifle.
3.) Ruger single action 44. Magnum.
4.) Number of military surplus rifles, e.g. British, Russian, & Italian. Early 1960's ammo was plentiful, inexpensive, and these rifles were fun to shoot.

I sold these as I needed the money, and I wish I had not so acted.

Let me add a couple more..Rossi 22LR pump rifle and Rossi 971 357 Mag w/integral compensator.

The latter was stolen, then recovered from the cold dead hands of a felon (after he pulled it on a cop) then returned to me.

Walther PPK

Taurus 24/7 G2 40SW

Terrible guns - for me.

I regret selling my Sig 226 and SW 5906.

Tokerov SVT-40 that I picked up at the gunshow for $400 and sold for $600 a month later. I though It was great that I made a great profit. I saw a tore up, beat up one on the table at Dayton for $1200 and once that were near perfect like mine command $2000+
