    I'm a hard headed Ahole, I won't fanboy anything,

    I'm just about to start writing letters to every manufacture and tell them just because they make something black and call it tactical does not make it new or better

    I've posted good things about my m&p but its because I have shot it and proven it and people around me know that I don't have too much of the "hot Brands" because there is a good amount of that stuff that does not give you the value per dollar of some other brands, Now that being said I have some branded stuff that has served me well and it looks like they have let their quality slip, and I've been burnt by some off brand stuff, But I've also been burnt by Fanboy stuff,

    Like I said I'm a hardhead SOB and I'll listen and read and go put my mitts on them then try to get out and use someone else's but I will NOT buy something just because they are the HOT Brand.

    I really think its a shame that there are fanboy's out there because that give a manufacture the license to throw out less than quality stuff and people buy it.

    One thing I've found is that MOST equipment sits in the safe way more than its out shooting, and with the exception of some of the more hard core shooters I think there's alot of stuff especially AR's that people dump money into and it sit where they could have bought the bottom of the line AR and put the rest of the money into a 22 or something that they could actually shoot and get some skills and enjoy more,

    That all being said IF a fanboy brand proves its actually better then I buy it.

    So since I've told you I'm not anybody's b**** here's the stuff that I pimp out

    1. M&P's
    2. Burris products All of them, they don't let me down and other people hate them for no reason than they've drank other brand koolaid
    3. Dillon reloaders Nobody can convice me any other brand is worth buying because I've owned the others and they were sold to fund dillons
    4. Dell PC's, I've had great service from every one I've ever had, Can't say that about HP or any other brand's Ive had
    5. Nikon DSLR- owned other brands and made it a point to shoot other brands, and every one of them is a good product but Nikon has my business
    6. Cabela's super slam clothing- it's kept me warm and dry when others havent'
    7. Remington- Rifles are good and can be made better, the 870 can't be improved End of story(yeah I know they can but give me this one)

    there's more but there's enough here for people to hate me already plus track down my other posts and you'll find I really kind of hate everything and not a very good person on top of it
