Probably a Hatsan Escort MPA Shotgun, looked poorly made, was horrible in the extreme to shoot, had about twenty rounds through it before deciding it needed to go.

I'm sworn off pistol grip shotguns in fact I think...

I had a Lee metford converted to .410 shotgun with a moderator on it that everyone thought was the worst gun ever.

I loved the thing.

I didn't convert it of course, I'm not a lunatic.

A Remington 700 varmint synthetic. It had a 8 pound trigger pull from the factory and a gunsmith failed to reduce it to an acceptable level. Neither Remington nor Edgar Brothers the importers were at all interested and the only solution that they could come up with was to recommend buying an aftermarket trigger which is just great when you've already spent over £1,000 on a rifle. I replaced it with a Sako and never looked back. I swore that I would never buy another Remington.

Two other club members also bought new Remington rifles and lived to regret it. Well at least the one did the other said that he was glad that he bought the Remington because it made him appreciate more the Blaser that he replaced it with after only a few months.

GSG MP5-alike .22 (the first batch). Plastic / cheap alloy casting and over-complicated field strip. The only firearm I've ditched within a few months from new. Even the Armscor AK-alike .22 lasted longer. That was horrible 'n' all.

A S&W Military and Police revolver, originally in 38 calibre but converted to .22 by Parker Hale. Struggled to hit the end of the range.

Mossberg JM 930, unreliable, no wonder Jerry Miculek doesn't use one for 3gun.

The problem with Mossberg, particularly the JM is their s*** quality control. Rough edges everywhere, nasty cheap grease.
When I got mine I polished/linished all the nasty bits and put quality grease in the stock recoil tube and it runs faultlessly now.

My worst gun was a Winchester 1200 pump. Hated it.

Glock17. Would do more damage if I threw it at the target.
