Default Piston Question

HaHaHa. Ill bet you believed me didnt you. I have never rebuilt a engine without buying new pistons and rings. If I buy a set of used pistons with rings on them can I re use the rings that come on the used pistons? If the rings are low miles will it hurt anything?

I wouldn't reuse the rings. They probably won't sit and you won't make compression.
