THE NEW GUY 113 Posted January 14, 2016 Report Share Posted January 14, 2016 I bought a Ruger 380 LCP , which had a 12 mile trigger travel before it went bang . I bought it for deep ccw it was pretty accurate , but I let my wife shoot it and waited for day's for it to go off .I got lucky and traded it in on a Glock 42 [ yeh I know Tupperware ] and only lost 50.00 . I felt pretty good about seeing it leave . It was my fault as I should have rented one before I bought it . I think it was the worst pistol I have ever owned . The next time I buy one from now on I will try it before I buy it . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
semper299 284 Posted January 14, 2016 Report Share Posted January 14, 2016 I had a Kel Tec 9mm. It was a medium size, and cannot remember the model. It was awful. The trigger was so bad, that you had to damn near pull it through the back of the trigger guard to get it to fire. Ergonomics sucked too. It was a many years ago, and I have owned much better Kel Tec handguns since. My Kel Tec PF9 is a great little gun. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

YOT 3,743 Posted January 14, 2016 Report Share Posted January 14, 2016 Accu-Tek AT380. It was also my first pistol. It was heavy, unreliable with HPs, and a PITA to take apart and reassemble. Damned thing was only 2.5 oz. less than my SA XD. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wouldn't let it deter you. Some people just have a bad experience with them, but I'd bet that the vast majority have a positive experience with Glocks, myself included. I've been using a 19 suppressed and un-suppressed for awhile. The only time it "hiccups" is when I'm running Remington UMC with the suppressor. Has a tendency to fail to feed and occasionally stove-pipe. It's just the ammunition, though, as I understand UMC to be underpowered. All else has been 100%, runs my HST's like a champ. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
XD45 7,124 Posted January 14, 2016 Report Share Posted January 14, 2016 (edited) Walther PK380. That pos soured me completely on the Walther name. It wouldn't make it through a magazine without a fte. I worked on it every time I took it out until I finally got it so it was relatively reliable and quickly traded it.

I never run UMC for that very reason. Only time my 226 ever malfunction was with UMC. The box I had was so under powered it wound't eject most rounds, and the few it did eject fell straight down as though I slowly opened the slide while holding the gun upside down.

JDeko 792 Posted January 14, 2016 Report Share Posted January 14, 2016 Worst I ever owned is my Tokarev... Also the best I even owned since its my only pistol. Worst I ever shot was a .380 Bodyguard, being as pulling the trigger only made a round actually fire maybe 2/3 of the time if I'm being generous. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hawk451 2,230 Posted January 15, 2016 Report Share Posted January 15, 2016 Had a Star BM that I just could not get to run reliably enough for a backup or 'belly gun'. Seemed to be a magazine follower problem. FTF on last round about 1/3 time with every mag & any ammo. I even tried modifying a 'donor' follower from a 38 super 1911 mag. Improved to about 1/5 LRFTF. Traded for a S/W 908; not quite as accurate, but it goes bang every time. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

6500rpm 670 Posted January 15, 2016 Report Share Posted January 15, 2016 Colt .25 auto. Pretty much a belly gun. Little to no sights and a back strap safety on a mouse gun. Then again, it was given to me when my dad passed and I still own it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Intratec Tec 9. it takes work to make a stainless steel production gun worse than something theroyalnonesuch glued together in his garage. Haha, I had one of those. Biggest piece of shit I've owned. Pulling the charging handle back any more or less than 2/3rds and it wouldn't chamber a round properly. I also had to slam the mags in. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SHOTGUN MESIAH 855 Posted January 15, 2016 Report Share Posted January 15, 2016 I haven't owned a pistol/revolver that I have not liked yet. All have been great. Guess I'm lucky so far. On a side note: If I had the coin I would have one of these. I hear they are very well built and very reliable. But way out of my price range. http://www.coonaninc.com/showroom/classic-compensated-ss-smoothwalnut/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
frz1197 128 Posted January 15, 2016 Report Share Posted January 15, 2016 My ptr-915 is probably my worst pistol. Its really big and hard to aim. Also the 20rds of .308 makes it one of the more expensive to shoot pistols out there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
