Llama .357 Comanche, and a 1911 style .45. Neither was reliable, and I was happy to pass them on to someone(s) who thought they could do better.

A Monkey Ward pump gun that somebody had bobbed, just a tad short. That one went for parts.

A .303 SMLE that had been chopped, barrel sawed off just legal (no crown), stock butchered, no sights, etc. paid $10, sold it a year later, for $15!

A .25 auto, that I was just happy to see leave.

I'm sure there have been others, I just can't remember them right now.
