So I am looking for a gun for my home that I can use but more importantly my wife can use. She is a real new shooter and with a lot of pistols has trouble pulling back the slide.
So before anyone says it. Revolver. Easier to use, more reliable, etc etc. I know the logically sound arguments. I believe them, I don't think anything in them is untrue or wrong.
So when the gun store owner starts down that road, I inform him. I HATE revolvers. I hate the look of them, I hate the feel of them, I just hate them. I cannot tell you why. I just do. It is irrational, from a firearm perspective they are in a lot of ways superior to pistols but I am so in love with a the 1911, or Beretta, or even my M&P, I just do not like them. Heck I like our KelTec P11, more than any revolver. Makes no rational sense, just what I like.
Luckily the clerk had a great sense of humor, said he can't argue with insanity and helped me look through the autoloaders he had.
So, I am curious anyone else out there have a similar type of hangup when it comes to a particular type of firearm?
