Guns that embarrassed me? Only one really and that was a RG 66 SAA .22LR. It shaved lead so bad nobody could stand near you when shooting it.
Not pretty? I have a Winchester Model of 1912 made in 1918. Finish is trashed (read rode very hard and probably put up wet). The LGS had it on GB and I thought it would make a good truck gun. Put an $87.00 bid on it (this was three years ago) and let it ride. At the end of the auction I got a "You Have Won" email, was very surprised. It had a Poly-Choke on it, and I hate those, just ugly just plain ugly!! Had the barrel cut down to 18 inches and use it as a back up house gun now. Not great on looks, but functions like new.
