Worst gun of all time

KelTec P11 9mm. Most inaccurate gun I've ever shot and the magazines were a pain to remove. Always had to really pull on them to get them out. Traded it to a guy who bought my Dan Wesson 357. Sure was nice to get my 357 back

just got done reading all the replies and glad to see no one complained about a browning dba 380 which is the only gun i have
i haven't shot it in years and only did about 3 mags full when i did and it seemed ok as far as i can remember.
i will be taking it to a range in the near future to get more comfortable with it esp if it's going to be my carry gun once i get my ccwp

Speaking of Browning "BDs", I bought a Browning BDM in 1999. Shot Lord knows how many rounds through it, only had one mis-feed with it(my fault), and it's a little tackdriver with just about any type of commercial 9mm ammunition out there today. Just like others have said, it's not so much a matter of manufacturer, it's a matter of that particular weapon.
 
After all of these horror stories I don't think I'll ever enter the used gun market. I carry a PT140 Pro and it's problem free.
 
I wouldn't call it junk or anything - it shoots straight and reliably, but my dad has a Ruger Single-Six that I have no desire to shoot at all. Pain in the butt to load, and you've really gotta jam on the ejector rod to get the casings out after shooting it. Since he moved to Illinois, he's given me a couple of his guns (1942 Lee Enfield No 1 Mk III & Rem 870). I'm not the kind of guy who really wants to sell off any gun, but I think if that one makes it to my safe, it probably won't stay there long.
 
The original S&W Sigma pistol, in .40 cal.

I bought one in 1994 right after they came out. First time at the range it was a jam-o-matic. Before I got through the first box of ammo, after jamming multiple times already, it had a feed failure (double feed) that left the slide out of battery and at a point where it would NOT move under any circumstances. Two range officers also messed with it for a while and had no luck.

I ended up casing it up with a live round in the chamber and another jammed in it and took it right back to the shop. They took it in back and came out 20 minutes later "fixed" and handed it back to me. My response was basically "are you kidding me"?

I got full trade in value towards a Colt government model 1911 and never looked back. Major POS, especially considering that it wasnt cheap...
 
Beretta Neos 22 I bought for my wife. It was a piece of crap I couldn't get rid of quick enough. I had to push all the roll pins back in every time I shot it, was as accurate as a politician, and all-around junk.
 
I only own 14 guns, and have fired even less. There have been 2 guns in my recent past that were absolutely terrible for Failure to eject, Failure to extract, and Failure to fire. One was Taurus TCP .380 model 738, and Taurus PT111 which is the Millineum Pro 9mm. In my opinion, it would be better to carry them empty, than to carry them at all. If Taurus sent me one of each for free, I would send them back. I wouldn't even sell them. I would not even use them as a paper weight because I would not want to be associated with either of those 2 guns for any reason. Throw them in the river until they rust to nothingness. I have no experience with their other products, but the 2 models I mentioned, for me, are useless.

Diamondback DB380, I wanted more than anything to like this gun and I gave it over 400 rounds before giving up and selling it. Went through calls with customer service trying to fix first the feed problems and then trigger reset issues. Not willing to trust my life on an unreliable carry gun that has to be tweaked to function.

I had a DiamondCrap DB9. Cracked frame, FTE/FTF, walking pins, etc. it was a good paperweight. Each magazine jammed at least once. Towards the end, I jammed almost every other round at count 650 something. Never could get it reliable.

Star Firestar was another bad apple.

Kimber Raptor II Ultra. Another POS.

Good, somebody else thats calls the Kimber what it is, a overpriced POS, .........thanks
 
One thing I have found is that some guys, including myself, never grow up when it come to wanting something case in point, for the last year or so I have wanted a 3 inch 1911, went through four different brands with little or no improvement, just would not run smooth, FTF, FTE, stovepipe, but when it would cycle, it was deadly accurate, FINALY I got a Colt Deefender, it runs about 98% only issue is my wife limp wrist it, the only other short 1911 I know of is thats good is the STI,
 
I agree with you on the S&W Sigman in .40cal. The trigger pull was terrible and it was a very uncomfortable trigger. It made the bottom of my trigger finger hurt after a very few rounds. Traded my in on a Ruger P95.
 
Buy enough guns and the lemon appears. Husband bought me the Taurus Judge with the long barrel for home defense. Holds 410's and 45's. The 45's shoot perfectly. The 410's however are a no go. I can shoot one shell and it warps and will not let the cylinder advance. yes, I used the hangun 410's. My husband tried to blame me until I handed it to him. He got the problem with one shot. Needless to say, it's loaded with 45's. And, yeah I bought a great Saiga 410 that is sweet.
 
Worst one I ever had, Steyr GB. The original "wondernine." Jammed, misfired, locked up, and thanks to it's recoil system, it was a nightmare to clean.

And no, it was a Steyr, not the POS LES P18.

These are the firearms I have had: FEG PA-63 (9mmx18); S&W M637 with CT grip; two Sig P238's, Springfield XD 40, and Glock 23.

After listening to some of you, I have had tremendous luck. They all have been very reliable firearms.

I have noticed that a lot of Remington .22lr ammo sucks though. Does that count?

Try Eley 22LR. It's a lot better than others. 22LR in most brands aren't very good.

You need to add a Sig P938 to your arsenal.
 
Early Taurus (and most of them are still butt ugly). Early Kel-Tec. Will never touch one again. Every cycle jammed. Sloppy machining. Rough castings. Junk.
