I read and hear discussions about purchasing new firearms and nobody ever seems to even discuss buying the original.
"Should I get an Imbel FAL or a Century?"
"Should I get a Springfield Armory 1911 or a Les Baer?"
"Which SAA clone is best?"
The list goes on and on. Well, I have a confession to make. In most cases I actually prefer the original.
My AR15? Colt.
My FAL? FN.
My 91? H&K.
I do have a couple 1911 clones but my favorites are the real deal.
Same situation with the SAA.
I realize that in many cases the original models cost more. But isn't anybody interested in owning the original? Do we not even consider buying the genuine article?
