What rifles have you bought twice?

[cavedweller]

We’ve all read and commented on threads about:

“if you could only have one airgun what would it be?”

But

What air guns have you owned and sold only to regret and repurchase?
Or just liked it sooo much you purchased 2 or more of the same item?

After buying and selling many many airguns, for me there were four platforms:

Thomas owned three - benchrest .177, full length.177, carbine.177 - I kept the carbine as it’s currently my favorite for HFT

Brocock Ghost - with every barrel available it’s my quick change artist and my favorite bullpup

Redwolf - two in .177 for HFT and one .25 in a PRS chassis for EFT

three TM1000 in .177 sold all
three HMX 1000 RAWS - 22, .25, .30 - kept the .25
two TM1000 pistols - both in .20 for Hft and EFT

I will play, after using my 1st Atomic XR and being flabbergasted by its outsized performance? I purchased a second as a backup and to configure differently. Zero regrets because they are both simply Boss…

Mine aren’t as substantial. I bought a 2nd PP700SA. I’m also buying another Notos. I sold my last Notos to a friend. These rifles I loan to friends to get them interested in the hobby. If they get broken, I’m not upset.

That’s a great idea

I bought two Leshiy 2's - one in .22 and one in .25, because I didn't want to convert between the two calibers. No regrets, love 'em both.

About 35 years ago I bought a second FWB124 so that I would always have parts. That still is my only double purchase for that reason. Too many new and different things coming out lately to bother with that logic lately.

I actually just received my second Taipan Veteran (version 1) yesterday. After owning the Long version for a bit, I really love it but I'm just looking for something a bit more compact.

Got a pair of Weihrauch PCPs.

After much research and long deliberation I decided on a. 22 caliber Weihrauch HW100 as my first PCP.

The .22 was out of stock and I was looking at a year (at best) before one would be available so I grabbed a .177 HW100 thinking that I would sell it when the .22 showed up.

About 14 months later I got a call that a .22 caliber HW100 was available if I was still interested - I pounced on it.

The Weihrauchs are well designed, well made and fit me perfectly. Couldn't part with the .177 so I have a matched set. Both have been shooting great for over 10 years.

Based on my positive experience with my Weihrauch PCPs, I recently added a .22 HW44, a .177 HW30 and a .22 HW50 to the cabinet. Very happy with all of them!

Cheers!

I've purchased the Diana 45, HW97, and HW98 each twice.

 

[Tumblinginflight]

Bought, sold, then later replaced an Air Arms S410, a Beeman Kodiak, and Diana 54. Hopefully I’ll get a crack at replacing the FWB 300 I sold someday as well.

 

[rcarlisle]

I don't have two of any yet, but I am sorta getting the bug for another Marauder. In .20 cal.

 

[trlrman]

Redwolfs , Pantheras , 3 of each and a couple of Raws Hm's . Not close to all but multiple of .

 

[crosman2016]

I have not done that yet with my airguns, but I have done that with a couple of powder-burning firearms. I tend to be a little more careful when I buy an airgun, and do not like to get rid of any of them.

 

[elwoodblues]

Beeman 2027 and 2028
Beeman 1357 and 1358
Kral Np03 .177 and .22
Diana Chaser .177 and .22
Benjamin Prod both .22 one tactical one in nice wood stock w/side lever

Does buying the gun and then spending just as much for the accessories count as paying twice?

 

[thumper]

HW100: I have two, a .177 and a .22 because I love them.

HW77K: I have 3 complete MK2s, and a couple project guns along with a pile of parts because I love them.

TX200: had one and sold it, bought another to make sure I didn't like it. Sold that one and will never own another.

FWB124: bought and sold a few to make sure I wasn't missing the "hype". Turns out they do suck, so I sold them all except one that I modified and a spare parts pile. I'll never own or want for another.

I may consider grabbing a second Taipan Vet in .25 at some point, but it's not a priority.

Lots that I have owned and sold and wouldn't want again.

 

[Ezana4CE]

Benjamin Bulldog more than 2, all in .357. Never sold one. Haven't messed anything up that couldn't be repaired. They shoot well enough for me - pellets, slugs, air bolts. If you've been on or around the AGN forums long enough you should already have known that I would say this.

 

[Bowhunter73]

I first bought a Leshiy 2 30cal and liked it so much I bought one in 25cal loved both of them but awhile back I decided to start thinning the herd down to the airguns I shoot the most so I sold the 25cal it was a great shooter and alot of squirrels meet their end by it.
