What was your worst buy? The one that just didn't live up to the MFR hype?

I once bought an SWD "Street Sweeper" just for the cool factor.
I knew going into the deal that the trigger pull was atrocious. Long and super-heavy.
Like, off-the-scale heavy. Probably 20+ pounds.
But, the "cool factor" was still there, especially after ATF said it was a D.D. and I registered it
on a Form 1 (tax free), and bobbed that barrel to 12" as the designer originally intended.

It was fun to show off to peeps, and watch your friends drool over, but not so much fun to shoot, due to that ridiculous trigger pull. (Although I took it back to the SWD factory in Atlanta and they gave it a tune-up that took the trigger pull down by just a couple pounds).

Was at a Wildlife Fund Raiser event ( Organization name withheld) purchased at auction a 25-06 (make withheld). I thought, "Great, they make money, I get a new deer rifle!" I could not make that gun shoot for crap! At 100yds the thing needed a full choke!
 
bodyguard 380 ez bought it for the wife, big mistake. Every trigger pull sent hot brass right down her shirt. just like a dang funnel.

Same thing happened to my ex shooting a sigma(sp), she swept the range when the brass went down her shirt. A good time for sure.
