What to do with a firearm you just don't like as much as you expected to???

I'm usually not a big spender on firearms (don't compete or regularly hunt), but i seem to have ended up with a couple that i'm just not really enjoying. I have always thought it unwise to sell a tool as useful as a firearm (never know when you might find a use for it), but i have picked up a couple that are making me rethink that idea. It's not that i don't like the model of the firearm. I'm wondering about these two and potential future mistaken purchases to come. The current crop includes a CZ-52 with a little bit more slide rattle than i really care for in something i would use to plink regularly; i know, i know, the gun was made in 1953, what did i expect. I also bought a Rossi remake of the Winchester model 62 in .22 magnum with serious finish wear and a non-OEM forestock that just offends my eye, so to speak. In my defense, the CZ purchase was made with the idea of regular plinking from the inexpensive surplus ammo that has now become much harder to find/afford. The .22 magnum just needs more TLC than i think it would be worth to me, time-wise; if it were the .22LR-.22 short model, it might be more worth it to me.

I'm wondering if i should just buck up & do what i can for the condition of and my regular use of the firearms now. Or, should i just tuck them back in the safe until i have more time to care for and use them? Or, should i put them up for sale and hope somebody else will enjoy them more? If i decide to sell them, do you think i would do better to sell them through a forum or newspaper advertisement, at a gunshow, or at the pawn shop (seems unlikely)? By "do better", i mean low hassle and recover what i spent, not make a profit.

Recommendations?

I don't know all the rules with gunshows, but i have seen people trying to sell a firearm they are carrying around, though only to dealers so far as i recall.

Face to face sales are legal. No dealer required. You might do a bill of sale for your own protection. AS for the other yo need to make up your own mind.

the cz can be fitted with a 9mm barrel for cheap plinking. I have one that still shoots the 7.62 round it is pretty powerful handgun. my slide is nice and tight. As far as the Rossi sand it down and refinish it with dark walnut stain the darker the stain the easier it is to make two pieces of wood look more similar. However I haven't seen one that the forearm didn't look darker than the buttstock. As far as selling goes gunshows are ok if you can ignore dealers entirely. I usually make up a sign and write a price and say under it "no dealers please." They are like pawn shops they want to give you half what they can sell if for.

In the past when I purchased a gun that didn't suit me, mainly a Sig and Glock, neither of which fit my hands well and as such could never shoot them very accurately, as apposed to other guns, I would just trade them on the purchase of something different.

I have a few guns now that have fallen into the I just never shoot them category and I plan to post them here so someone else can get the enjoyment out of them instead of them just sitting in the safe and never getting any play time.
