Ruffnek, I've owned Guns for over 50 years. In that time I've had some that cost over $2,000.00. The last gun buy I made was a Hi Point Carbine. It just takes some patience with some of the folks we encounter. Happy Shooting!
Its not what you shoot, its how you shoot it....
I have a shooting buddy who thinks he is Rambo... except he can't shoot for **** and actually barely shoots at all even though he owns about 5 moderately expensive guns. His last was a heavy barrel AR10 he bought during the craze. With the scope it cost him roughly $2k.... The funny thing is he has yet to shoot it past 20yds and literally can't shoot 5moa at that range with it.
Its not the gun either... I can stack 3 rounds at 20yds pretty easily and he can't even hit a 1" sticker....

The best gun you can buy is the one that gets you out to the range or protects you and your family. I don't get were the guys that personally trash on someone else's life find their joy in looking down on others. Wether it is a material thing or a way you feel the best part about the gun community should be enjoying life and sharing knowledge to keep smiles in life. That is why I love being on this website/forum.

Did something get deleted or did a 20 month old thread get bumped for this?
I believe it just got bumped
But I'm a snob
I'm nosy for some details myself. The gent's recent post history doesn't really point to anything...
Keeping smiles means not buying crap.
But I gave up trying to inform those that supposedly wanted the truth years ago.
I just smile now, like a Cheshire Cat, and reaffirm whatever nonsense they spew.
And when the sh*t breaks I'm all too happy to send them to the worst hack of a gunsmith.

People are in denial and need to have their firearm choices based on budgets justified. They need to show the non-believers that their ______________(insert brand) was a great deal and will run right with your expensive piece.
I am with you Hook.....let-em be.
Inexpensive doesn't mean the same thing as crap.
Doesn't make it a solid value either.
Worked gun retail............there is a large element of folks who have $ and are educated (or not) that see guns as something that should be as cheap as possible.
Not uncommon to see a new Cadillac CTS and a guy pull out a towel with a Lorcin and RG............wanting to have them cleaned.
Same guy usually is vocal in his support of Brazilian brands.

Got old real quick, way back, didn't it Church?
What I like is when you have somebody looking at a decent rig, in the store, and customers come up and tell them how the cheap POS they got is better, that the decent quality and fair priced stuff is BS.
Or how they can save $2 by ordering a part or accessory from Bass Pro or other web place.
Fun when they listen to the idiots, and things don't work out..............and they expect, maybe even demand that you fix it.
After they blame you for the wrong stuff..............sometimes in a bag from another store, receipt still in the bag.
People suck.
Let 'em buy sh*t.

Like I said.......Let-em be. You can not fix stubborn or stupid.
For the same money they waste on a POS they could buy a quality used gun.
