I bought an Olympic arms AR15 years ago. It was a very finicky gun that jammed frequently. I ended up dumping it at a gun show for a 200 dollar loss. I didn't care though, just wanted to get rid of it. I had a bunch of magazines for the AR platform and quite a bit of ammo but I decided to not replace the gun with a better quality AR. I decided to move on to only owning M1a's as rifle.
Walther PK380 is one pistol I regret ever buying. It didn't matter what type of ammo was put through it. The results were usually the same: FTF, FTE, and groups that looked like Stevie Wonder was shooting. I didn't and don't have those issues with the other pistols I have. It was just that one.

Let me guess, you were shooting lacquer coated steel cased ammo, the stuff that Olympic says not to shoot in their AR-15s because they will cause it to have problems.
I have a Olympic Arms AR-15 and it will eat anything other than lacquer coated ammo.
As far as something I bought that was a POS, a Marlin model 60, magazine fed 22 rifle, I never could get it to work long enough to empty a mag.

Nope, I stayed away from wolf due to what you mentioned.
The only gun I ever bought that I ended up regretting was a Jaegger AP74. An AR a1 22lr lookalike. It started hang foreign at about 4-5 hundred rounds and just got worse from there. What a pos! K was only 20 at the time though and I was swayed by cool looks. Everything else I've bought was a quality, name, firearm with a proven record, except for one, early model Ruger P 85, a d it had to go back on the factory recall and came back a P89.

Gunsmith friend of mine says if you get a Marlin 60 that will feed all the time, keep it, if not, they are damn hard to fix.
The Miroku 500 S/S 12ga that I just sold. I couldn't get the hang of shooting a S/S no matter how much I practiced. I did sell it for a profit though, so I shouldn't complain.
A Kimber Tac-Pro .45. I was really disappointed with that firearm. For the amount of $ you pay you expect flawless operation. It only reliably fed ball ammo. I sent it back twice, had a smith work it once- could never get it to reliably feed anything other than ball ammo.
I haven't seen any lacquer coated ammo in a long time . WOLF doesn't use lacquer that I'm aware of . Maybe in the past .
