The OP suggests one type of snobbery, but it comes in many forms. Whether it involves making a virtue of spending more or less, or demeaning others for spending too little or too much, or just having different preferences, I think most gun snobbery revolves around self-validation.

Whatever works for a particular person should be what matters. I used to go to an indoor range where I and most of the other customers were humbled nearly every week by a gentleman who would arrive with an old S&W Model 10 revolver, shoot 3-round strings so fast his gun sounded like a full-auto, and all of the shots would be touching - always.
