I've always said that I've never shot a gun that I didn't like, I've just shot some that I like more than others. (Ok, I once shot a blackpowder rifle with a revolving cylinder that gave me some nasty powder burns, I didn't like that too much.) I've always scoffed when I've seen things written such as "Glocks are for simple minded people," "I wouldn't own...," "Only a fool would buy a Hipoint." Well as long as it is safe to fire I pretty much want to shoot it. Case in point...
The other day a co-worker and myself were very bored at work. He had a Phoenix Arms .22 with him just for kicks. (Yes, we are fortunate enough to not only be able to carry but also shoot quite often while at work.) We find a top to a tin can and set it up about 50 feet away and took 3 shot turns to see who could hit it first. Had we been shooting a high quality target gun it would have taken neither of us all 3 shots to land one on target. With the Phoenix we spent a good 20 minutes, BSing, cutting up, arm chair quarterbacking each other, etc. before the target was hit. We had a great time messing with that little junker. I encourage all the elitists out there during your next range session to put down your $3000 1911, your $2000 AR and pick up a junker with a friend and have a little fun with it.
