Best - £10 chinese cree torch off ebay. Round beam (not square like the others), and 150yard range easy. Amazing piece of kit. 

Worst - hatsan / edgars mod 60 air rifle. Most crude inaccurate piece of **** I've had the misfortune of being sold. and I've owned a lot of **** kit 

adding a new category - never sell 

my stevens mod 79 pump. Best £25 I ever spent

Worst.....................Probably a Darne 12 bore. Lovely gun, just unable to find a Gunsmith who would work on it and when I did,  it cost in excess of £300 to make 1 small pin for it.

My Darne could qualify as my worst (kicks like a mule, and inconvenient to use), but doesn't because I do admire the engineering; agree getting anything done is a nightmare.  Worst has to be a hammer gun - cheap gun, bought very cheap, right lock fell out every few shots!

Best is harder; probably my AyA no 1.  Not the most expensive (bought as well used second hand), nor the most prestigious gun I own, but has ended up as my 'go to' gun ....... simply because I seem to shoot better with it than anything else.  Honourable mention as runner up best is a William Powell hammer gun.  Still near mint after 147 years.
