Maybe it's because I clipped forty...
Maybe it's because I have a beautiful wife and daughter...and have a "strong sense of self"...
Maybe it's because I'm just plain independent...but I NEVER would buy a gun, or NOT buy one based on what my shooting buddies might think about it.
Would I ask what they thought? Probably, because their good folks and I'm interested in their opinions...but opinions based on substance not taste.
The autoloader fan seems to be more prone to brand/model loyalty than others, and less "tolerant" of brands/models that don't suit their fancy.
Am I the only one out here that buys what I want, when I want (as long as I have the $$$) and really couldn't give a hoot whether one of my shooting buddies would think less of me for doing so???
For autoloaders, I own:
Bulgarian Makarov
CZ-52
BDA-380
P95-DC
CZ-75B
Glock 22
Glock 23
SigPro 2009
I enjoy the variety...as I continue to build my collection, I expect to look for more variety, not more of the same...
I'm interested in hearing from other independent minded autoloader fans...and why others seem to feel intimidated about saying "gee, I bought a Glock & I like it" ... or "I'm coming out as a Ruger owner".
I'm amused by some who seem to post requests for permission, "I'm thinking of getting one of these...is it okay with y'all?"
What's the deal?
