In some cases, I am anti-new. For example, I refuse to buy a new S&W revolver with the integral lock.
I find I can often find new guns cheaper than what individuals or gun stores want for used ones.
Because at age 52 I had never bought a gun, and I was totally ignorant of the fact that the GI version of the Carbine was, on average, a much better rifle.
There had been no prior reading. It was both my first and Last new gun. New guns depreciate far too much.
