I bought my model 60 in 1983 and its had thousands of rounds go through it with no trouble. RG 10 22 cal double action revolver was biggest piece of crap I ever owned. Yep and yep

Can't remember the model #, but I had a Savage 20ga/.22 LR O/U that shot the .221 barrel 2 ft low at 10 yds and nothing I could do would fix it.

Remington 870 supermag. Absolutely junk. Poor quality overall. Horrible fit and finish. Handled like a brick. X2. Piece of crap!

My firearms are like kids, wouldn’t dream of getting rid of any of them, except two.
Remington 700 synthetic with stainless fluted barrel in 22-250 circa 2002
Mossberg 500 Slug Gun circa 2015’ish
Neither would hit the broad side of a barn. I spent a lot of money on every brand/type/load of ammo I could come up with to try and get them to shoot to no avail.
P.S., loved my mid 80’s Model 60! Killed lots of squirrels growing up with that rifle. It was eventually stolen out of my truck and I’ve never been happy with a squirrel gun since.

Browning A-500 Twelve gauge semi-automatic.
Never cycled a 2nd round in it's whole miserable career.
It was a Jamming S.O.B.
Bought it brand new in the box & payed a pretty penny.
Had it replaced twice but all of those guns were high dollar single shots.
No gun smith could figure out the jamming/cycling problem, either.
Absolute junk.

Taurus .38 special revolver, when they first came in the country back in the 80's.
Soft steel, action out of time, shaving bullets when fired...Taurus has came a long way since those early examples.

Winchester SXP... I have had several of them and this one was terrible. It cycled rough and I could aim right at a paper target and the whole pattern was three feet off at thirty yards. Sold it.
I have had great luck with a lot of guns.
Just passin through

Savage Rascal that I bought for the kids to start learning with, they called it the " clicker " for it's failure to fire. Tried different ammo with no luck so sent it back to Savage. After I got it back it was no better than before so I sent it back. After I got it back the second time not only did they not fix it it wouldn't always eject the shell so I got it back worse then when I sent it in After that my kids grew out of it and they now both have ruger 10/22's which have been great.

LOL, I told you it had it's defenders. I've seen several and none would run through a magazine or two before it started jamming. It's no 10/22 Ruger! ... but us cheapskates all bought one to learn the hard way. This is kinda funny, but I'm probably the only person alive who has had bad luck with Ruger 10/22's....Had a older model with twin action rods, and a couple of newer ones and none of them ran dependably. And, I kept them clean! Come to think of it, none of the semi-auto .22 LR's I've been around were truly dependable, but some were better than others.

788 Remington. Ha- Ha. I know that you know Patick's fondness for that model.
I'm just happy to be here! Today I'm as young as I'll ever be and and older than I've ever been before!
