I find that the best way to prevent impulse buys is to rent first. I recently thought I really wanted a Walther PPQ. I read all the great reviews and watched many youtube videos. I already have several Glocks which are similar pistols, but even Hickok45 was raving about the amazing PPQ trigger, so I really thought I needed one.

To make a long story short, I rented a PPQ and decided not to buy it. It's a great gun, but just not that much better than my Glock 19. I'd rather spend the $600 on something different.
