I had a Llama Omni .45acp. extermely accurate, never jammed, and always fired. However, more often than not it would shoot "doubles" ant once even a "triple". Couldn't find parts to rebuild the sear and trigger assy so I sold it. I was straight forward and explained the problem and the guy still gave me $175!

i have a s-w model 410 , just not made to feel like it is safe to shoot, give you a deal on it.

billy · 03-06-2008, 11:13 PM

i had a raven arms 25 caliber pistol.
it worked fine .
but it was such a shitty little gun i threw it away.
it's in the woods somewhere.

I just remembered I had a POS boltaction Revelation 410 shotgun one time that never worked right when the magazine was completly loaded.
I gave it to my sisters kid...A.H

how little do you want for it?

Big Tool · 03-07-2008, 01:56 AM

I definitely know there are worse guns, but currently this dan wesson is the poorest condition revolver I have. It shoots like a champ, but the bluing is pretty worn and has a bunch of scratches, and I believe the cylinder is alittle out of time.

Here's a picture of a chest of drawers that came with my bedroom suite. I picked this set because the top has a nifty slide out drawer that i keep my pistols in. Completely hidden, and it's lined with velvet material. My nightstand is packin some serious heat.

Zephri · 03-07-2008, 01:58 AM

It's not crappy, just a little loved.

blaster · 03-07-2008, 08:42 AM

#1 a charter arms ar-7 pistol, when it doesn't jam it goes full auto for a round or two. #2 a springfield- savage .22 semi rifle ( forgot the mod. #) #3 a winchester mod 180? .22 semi rifle both these rifles were given to me to try to repair and no matter what I do they stil jam every shot. I leave them in my shop in plain sight hoping that if I ever get broken in they will grab them and run leaving the good stuff

Rohm .22 cal revolver. Its in a small box with a glass top hanging on the wall. Need I say more.....

Taurus Fan · 03-11-2008, 08:12 AM

I just saw a monstrosity called a Hi-Point. Any owner of such has bragging rights on this thread.

ander254 · 03-11-2008, 08:33 AM

Yeah ive seen the hi-points. You can get one for about 150 new. to me its a no frills gun. bulky as all get out. i was at the pawn shop just seeing what they had and two guys bought 4 hi-points each. they each got 9mm, (2) 40s, and a 45. The 9 and a 40 were for the wifes, and the other 40 and 45 were for them. I would have rather spent the 600 on one nice gun than 4 not so nice ones.

Just out of curiosity I looked up Hi-Points, they're big because they're blow-back, not locked breach, and they need a big heavy slide for the design to handle the 9mm/.45. Even the .380 is jumbo sized. They're cast iron and stamped parts, and do indeed cost $160 or so new. Has anyone here ever had one? If you'll own up to it, tell us about it, I'm curious. There are actually people who love them and claim they're OK, but I suspect they may be insane.

This .32 revolver when when my brother first got it was given to him because the previous owner was scared of it. The firing pin hit the primers so hard it would put big holes in it. When you lock the hammer back you can move the cylinder a 1/4 inch in both directions. When you pull the pin to lower th cylinder it just falls until it hits the frame. Why I keep it? Because it would not be responsible for me to sell it to anyone. I can't get myself to destroy it so it will just sit in my safe. Attachment 7782 Attachment 7783

holy hell my dad has one of those and the cylinder rolls freely around, doesnt lock

ya i wouldnt shoot that unless i really, really had to

i want to own one, seems like nearly everyone who knows a good deal about guns and has had one or shot one said they have been a very pleasant surprise

Drizzdog · 03-14-2008, 11:44 PM

I've fired a hi-point once, my friend *who is cheap* bought one in 9mm and swore by it. I found the fitting to be a bit loose and its bulky as all get out but not too bad for a gun that cost him 139.99.

I don't know if I'd trust it to a heavier/ harder hitting caliber like a .45, just my opinion. But I am by no means a gun elitist, I am probably 1 of like 30 people who owns a llama comanche III and actually pleased with it. I can tell you the cheapest nastiest gun I've fired was my dad's Llama Minimax in .45. The thing is basically the mini version of a 1911 only its fit isn't great, its finish is terrible *i'm pretty sure llama or bersa or whoever made it went to walmart and bought some of that dollar spray paint and had a good time with it* the thing had about 5 scratches on it after about 10 minutes out of the box just from handling it. On top of the poor quality, the thing jams, and it jams on everything from hollowpoints to jacketed soft points, to you name it. I've heard of people polishing up the feed ramp and getting some decent magazines for it and it'll fix some of it's problems, but I keep telling my dad its probably not worth it. Makes a great paperweight.

MEXBARBARIAN · 03-15-2008, 04:59 AM

I once had a Davison .32 it was giving to me as a present I shot it a few times and the firing pin broke it cost more for the firing pin than it did to buy a new one lol

jimkim · 03-15-2008, 05:38 AM

I dont own it, but it is at my house. How about a ruger single six with the grip WELDED on. I dont know who did it. Near as I can tell they lost their screws and figured that welding would make more sense than ordering. You can also see where they did some grinding on it to make it purty.

Sins-of-Mosin · 03-15-2008, 12:11 PM

Nah, I got some of you beat. I got this pos at a gun show for like $90. Ugly to shoot and still ugly when trying to clear the jam that happens all the damn time. I keep it to remind me to do some research before I buy a gun.

rondog · 03-15-2008, 03:06 PM

I think PONTIACDM is in the lead. That .32 is downright scary-looking!

rebel727 · 03-21-2008, 08:58 AM

I don't have a pic of it. I think it's in my moms attic but it's a Burgo .22 short revolver. Now that's a POS. It's da only and has about a 25 lb. trigger pull.
