Every one has a different budget, different priorities, and different taste. A high end weapon to me might be entry level fodder for someone else, or vice versa.

Buy a gun, shoot it, shoot it well, and forget other people and what that think about it.
Agreed. Gun snobs really annoy me. Most folks have to justify their gun purchases to themselves one way or another. I might have liked to buy a HK semi, but I couldn't justify, to myself, paying twice the price of the FNS I bought. I bought a Taurus 1911. I would have liked to buy a high end 1911, but wish I had spent a little more on a Springfield RO. I didn't know at the time and didn't really have the budget. It is a learning thing also. Bang for the buck is a big thing for me also. One thing about the snobs that annoys me is the statement of implication that " you should have bought gun x, y, or z because I said so". Really? Don't rain on my parade and I won't kick mud on you. Shoot and enjoy what you choose.
