[QUOTEIn that case, why not just buy the cheaper gun and not spend the money on the more expensive one?][/QUOTE] Several years ago, someone here (forgive me for not remembering who and giving proper credit) said about a holster "Go ahead and buy a $20.00 motorcycle helmet if you think you have a $20.00 head." Seems the same thought process applies here with firearms. A $1200 firearm for one guy may be a minor purchase , while for me- I have to study and plan very carefully for a $500 purchase.
