I've sold three... The first one came back to haunt me. I sold it to a trusted person/friend who collects that particular brand. I sold it to him as a personal transaction and he played around with swapping slides from 9mm to .40 as a test. The test worked out and he ended up selling a .40 cal of the same style to someone else and he forgot to swap the slides back. His transfer was done through a dealer to the next person (I think), but since the frame had my serial number (because of the slide mix up), I was contacted by the DEA when the gun was seized during a drug raid on a house in south Texas

No worries, I told them who I sold it to and gave them his contact information. That person explained the mix up to the DEA and all was well. He was very apologetic to me because the gun was supposed to be part of his collection.

Second gun went to someone from another forum. Was a great transaction and he was in law enforcement. Again, another enthusiast for that particular brand.

Third gun I sold went to a forum member here and was a great transaction. No regrets.

Each time, I created a bill of sale (the first one was hand written) and kept that on file. I know it is not required, but I would do a bill of sale for anything of value that I sell to an individual, guns are no exception. Flame away!

I've pretty much decided that I will not sell anymore guns. I miss every gun that I have sold. and would buy them back in a heart beat, if I had the extra money and those folks would sell them back. I know we should not attach emotional value to these objects, but hey, I'd like to have the old 67 Mustang Convertible I had when I was in High School too. Call me sentimental...

To answer your original question, yes!, you'll regret selling. but you'll get over it and be able to answer this question for someone in the future.
