What gun do you regret selling?

None for rifles. But I wish I had kept my first shotgun I bought for myself. Ithaca 37 mid 70's version, 12 gauge. I shot it well until I had the barrel cut and put a polychoke on it. Moved it on a deer gun--might have been my big bore model 94--because I couldn't shoot it as well. Not long after I learned about replacement barrels and not too many years after that screw in options became available.

Picked up a 69 28" 37 in 16 gauge recently, and all is well again.
 
The only gun I ever sold was the first one I ever bought... I was 12, and I worked to save money, snow shoveling, mowing lawns, and doing a paper route. Many years later I guy I worked with for years needed a rifle for his kid who was just starting. I sold it at 30% under the going price, and I gave him all the anno I had for it. I only hunted with it for one year. It went to a good cause, but I still regret selling it.
 
I didn’t sell it, but I think my brother did. It was my dad’s pre-64 Winchester 1894 in 30-30. The rest of my dad’s guns were there after my brother died, but not that one.
Ouch. My brother took my dads version of the same gun. To this day I say nothing ever carried as easy or came up as quick. My brother and his two boys both have taken deer with it. I think one of his grandchildren might be carrying it before long.

My first shotgun was a Model 37, 12g, mid 70s. Don't recall how it got away. 16g would have been even better.
