So, let me get this straight:
Winchester made the BEST rifle ever created;
they've been reorganized several times;
they've made guns cheaply...then made cheap guns;
then they made guns you'd be lucky to own;
then they started making guns you have to replace all the parts on from the Brownells catalog?
Colt made mystical guns, too.
Then they quit making them.
Then they started making them again...Similar story.
1911 + $2000 = nice pistol...
Smith & Wesson: UP & down; made here and there and here again...
I own none of the above 3 mfg. firearms.
A MORTAL SIN!!!...according to some.
For the most part, I have chosen:
Remington rifles; Beretta pistols; & Ruger revolvers.
Me thinks I've done OK!
(for you serious types, this was all a good natured ribbing)
