When to give up on rifle?

Tell the truth. You don't want to be That Guy.

My experience: My father handed down a Frankenstein Remington 1100 to me that wouldn't function consistently. I tried/fixed everything, including opening up the gas ports. Like you, I finally got fed up with it and sold it.

I posted it on GunBroker, with a link to the long thread on ShotgunWorld where I discussed how to fix it (or not), and it sold for double what my father had bought it for...

Nevermind Foxx: Dump this thing and move on. You'll be happier when it's gone.

I agree. I never said "DON"T SELL IT". I said I would not sell it. I am different. I am the guy that would buy it. I said it would be tough to sell right now for a decent price because there are real low prices on new Savages out there.
