Weird thing about guns

[kazaam]

Is that you can look at them all day (or month(s)) and think they look ZOMG awesome and hear they feel incredible in the hand, and then when you actually get a hold of it in real life, its uncomfortable and doesn't look as good as you thought.

You guys told me this when I started shopping for a first handgun, and i'm glad i listened lol.

I'm the opposite. I can hardly find one I don't like.

That's my problem...

Are you sure you're talking about guns?

I hate it when I get psyched about a gun but then when I finally get to see it in person it is considerably larger than I had imagined. Thus making it too big for me to cc.

That's why God invented Open Carry.

Wait until you get a high end gun and like it at first and the more you shoot it the less you like it.

Ha! That's the truth! Guilty of that one. Sold the expensive handgun for an AR and I'm much happier now! I guess you live and learn.

The funny thing about [having lots of] guns is deciding which one to carry.

Yeah I keep thinking it must be me, but I just can't adapt to the gun.

I grew up shooting military 1911's and revolvers. I never even held a polymer frame handgun until the year 2001. I guess that is why I have a hard time shooting certain pistols. It's the old adage cant teach a old dog new tricks thing. Although I do love my Glocks. Go figure.

Guns are like boobs, even the bad one's are still good.

 

[Mr.JAG]

Ehh..

Little different with me.

I get it, I love it... then I get bored and have to trade it in for something else.

To which gun are you referring?

 

[Mosinguy]

I love all guns, the thing is I have no money.

It's all such a personal preference thing. I wanted a FNP .45 Pistol, thought they looked cool, and read all the great things the gunwriters said about them. When I actually got to handle one, the gun felt more like a brick than my G21. (I shot a G21 before I bought one). And I wanted a Sig 220. But the one I handled sure had a nasty DA/SA trigger pull. Guess I was spoiled by the sweet trigger on my P90.
