    The WORST Firearm You Ever Owned

    Thought I would start this thread for the fun of it.
    We all pride ourselves for having accurate, safe and reliable guns, some we currently own and some we regret the day we sold them as they were excellent.

    However we never talk about the Dud's that we were unfortunate enough to own. Stuff that drove you to drink and caused endless frustration.
    It maybe because they were inaccurate, poor function or quality control from the factory, over priced and over rated..... or maybe you got the Friday afternoon shitter that some arse hole threw together from the reject parts bin in record
    time with both eyes shut and facing backwards.

    I will kick it off with two that were shockers.

    1: Henry Lever Action 22lr, a gift, a little stunner to handle with a silky smooth action. Nice wood. Kind of classic Lever action lines and looks that John Wayne would have got a hard on for and Indians running to the hills.
    However that's where it stopped and John Wayne's hard on would have rapidly deflated and the only Indians falling over were the one's pissing themselves with laughter. Simply the most inaccurate piece of shit I have
    ever shot, sprayed ammo and a sawn off shotgun, at 50 mtrs it would actually have ammo key holing the target ( if you hit it ) sold it to some guy who despite the warnings only wanted to shoot possums out of a Lemon tree at 6ft away,
    even then he would have been lucky. Replaced with CZ .

    2: Winchester Model 94 Trapper in 44 mag. I loved this bloody thing. Just an awesome bush gun and still one of my favorite cartridges. I sanded down the stock and doted love and attention on it, Looked great and with iron sights shot really well.
    Enter the scope and rings, all mounted up mint, really looked the shit. However I ran out of scope adjustment to the left, swap rings around, same problem WTF
    A lot of swearing and cursing followed . A phone call to Gun Smith " bring it in mate, I think I know already what the problem is but I will check it out "
    50 km drive to Gunsmith , he took one look and said look down the receiver. I look down and fuck me the barrel is really pointing off to the right, like not a little bit , it's really going right.
    Gunsmith says that it's a factory fault and in his time had seen 7-8 others, all pointing to the right.
    I was gutted, how many millions of these things have Winchester made and they can't put a bloody barrel on straight...sold it

    When you get a good gun it's all rose's but get a turd and it's a one way street to shit city.
