I actually enjoy doing a lot of research and price comparison. I know a decent deal when I see it and will often jump on it. I don't allow myself to overspend on something "I just gotta have!". There are too many decent guns out there to get hung up on any particular brand or model. I need to add that I have a very supportive wife who loves clothes almost as much as I love guns. We typically don't hassle each other too much
