RE: I'm saying goodbye forever

Wow, letting go what looks to be your favorite competition piece? Holy cow, you certainly MUST have your eye on something spectacular to let that beauty go for a walk. Looking forward to seeing more about that soon.

The buyer is certainly lucky to grab one so well tested and maintained!

Yeah I know, it was a big decision but in the end I concluded that it was the right thing to do. I have a lot of guns but try to minimise them where possible. I also don't like to spend money if I don't need to, so moving this one onfrees some up to get something else.

Yes, but that was your "baby" so long there may be seller's remorse later. I had that once. I sold an early model Colt Mustang .380 to buy the Glock 21 I eventually modified into the .460 Rowland. I'm glad I made the buy, but still miss having that little Colt around now and again just from all the memories carrying it over the years.

Yeah fair point, it was/is such a cracker of a gun. Faultless.

I think people read the word regret and think of it too generally; it's more miss it or wish I could shoot it again I suppose. The thing is, if I kept everything I ever had I'd not be able to get new stuff due to my need over want ethos, I don't see the point of amassing things for the sake of it, things have to have a purpose and there's little point (for me) to have multiple things that do the same thing. (Like you and your .380 Colt)
