I asked for an honest assessment of the positives, without the extra sauce on top. I see you're incapable of leaving the sauce off.
Ahh, you know you like sauce. Pepper sauce is the best too! I put it on everything but my hot cakes.
I think you need to re-read the OP. Hell, read the subject line. I'm sorry that my opinion hurt your feelings.
Didnt hurt my feelings at all, and I did re-read the topic. I just wonder how you can hate and have an opinion on something youve never tried and actually shot. Other than that, oh yea, its ugly. Ugly tells us a lot.
We're getting back to the Benjamin Franklin quote in my signature. I prefer to rely on my ability to gather evidence, think about it critically and make a judgment call based on experience. Rather than having to buy and "experience" every single cotton-picking thing. You have told us outright that it has less muzzle rise, is faster in recovery and directs the recoil more straight back than up. One with half a lick of sense can ascertain all that from just looking at it, which I did and spelled out in my first response. I have all the information I need to make a decision, without buying one. I also know that those attributes do not benefit me at all. So there is no reason under the sun for me to buy one, just so I can speak from experience. IMHO, that would be stupid. If the gun appeals to you and you enjoy its attributes, more power to you. I don't have to buy one to know I don't want one. I just bought my 110th revolver, don't need any help.
Well, if you and Ben have it all figured out, why even bother chiming in here at all then? You know it all, sorta.
And good for you on 110.
I have a rough idea of the different types Ive had over the years, but never really kept an accurate count. Things have come and gone, and lots of things and lessons learned, good and bad, but "I" actually learned them. I keep and have multiples of those I like, need, and use, only have a couple of sentimental guns, and turn the rest around to feed the habit. I can think of three Ive owned, that would easily have bought you your 110 too, so Im not all that impressed, if that was your reason for telling us.
And if you really want to impress, the guns are actually just the small number there $$$ wise, and the cheap part of that whole equation, so 110 guns really isnt saying much. If you arent trying your best to wear them out, you really must not like the gun much. The cost of the ammo that started to wear out my one Glock (another ugly gun) alone, would have allowed me to buy about 50 more brand new 17s in the time it took to shoot it. And Im still shooting it. And all that now on a fixed income!
Well, some of those come and gone's and a bit of blood, sweat, and tears, helped there too.
Oh, wait, that isnt "sauce" again, is it?
