The rifle you sold or traded and wish you had back?
Mine's a Remington 600 .308 that had a Weaver K4 scope on it, back when Weavers were American made.
I had a Remington single shot .22 nylon bolt Model 10 I think, as my 1st real gun. My 2nd gun a Winchester single shot .22 Model 67A, I think and my 3rd gun a Mossberg repeating .22 [it had J F initals that were drilled holes filled with light color wood glue in the monte carlo stock] all three I wish I had back.
Also had a Ruger PC9 carbine, as well as some 32 rd magazines! Oh hindsight you are a cruel mistress...
I'll add to that, a Winchester Trapper .44 Mag, a Remington model 8 in .35 Remington and a Springfield M-6 scout in .22 Hornet and .410 - my eyes are tearing up!

dont have it yet...lol....but i cant wait to inherit my dads remington 742 woodsmaster 30-06 (his dad has exact same rifle...a few years older) ................iv heard about all the problems with them but am a firm believer that if their taken care of theyll last you a lifetime ..........i took my 1st coyote with my grandpa's at 100 yds
I regret every one I've ever traded to some extent, even the bulged-barrel single-action .22 revolver that I traded for in high school. The one(s) I miss the most are the sporterised #1 MK III Lee-Enfield that I traded for a dirt bike and the factory 26 SKS that I traded for a Star Super Modelo. I also regret getting rid of the Star for my PA-63. And then there was the single-shot 12 ga. that I cut down.....
Mine was a Remington 03A3 that i bought from the old Klein's Sporting Goods that I believe was in Chicago for $49.95 in 1963. The rifle would have been considered NRA excellent at that time.
I sold it to help me pay the down payment on an engagement ring for my lovely wife to be.
Pre 64 Winchester 70 in 30-06.... I still don't know what I was thinking...young and dumb I guess.. That darn 1970 mustang mach.1 I traded for is long gone and so are the tickets I got with it. would love to have her back... the mod. 70 that is.....
all of them...LOL!! No, but there is one... i had a ruger in 7mm rem. mag. with a poly grey stock and it was stainless steel, I had put a bushnell 3x9x40 scope on it... it was sharp...

I can think of a few, but not model #'s, and nothing special. I just grieve for ALL the firearms I no longer have. All my former Harley's too, and my Chevelle, while we're at it.

I bought my Remington 600 from my best friend when he was in need of some funds. I put a HS Precision stock on it because the originals are prone to cracking at the recoil lug, and a Burris 3-9 mini.
The one I wish I had back is a Winchester 75.

My first, a 6.5X55 ex mil rifle. It was butt ugly but man could that thing shoot. Traded for a 308 Ruger s/s synthetic stock, my first new rifle, BAD MOVE. I hated that Ruger and it didn't hang around long.....

There are several that would fit here but the main one would be an old Remington 22, bolt action, w/clip and a peep sight. I believe it was a model-511 (?)
If i knew then what I know now ........I`d still have it.
Interarms mark X Mauser in 7x57mm. It had a very bad flashy 70's style stock that I replaced. Also installed was a Winchester 70 style safety. It had an older Weaver 4x scope as well. Traded it before even though I knew it was a bad idea... Taught me a good lesson on impuse trading. Andy
