While his spelling and punctuation leave a lot to be desired, why is it necessary to CONTINUE to insult him for it? After all, weren't the ones doing that the SAME ones who said that they don't read his posts? If you don't read them, how are you doing anything productive? The crap about reading levels is an ad hominum attack.
Often, the people representing themselves as bearers of information have an agenda, and not a shred of factual evidence. I would think that anyone who arrives in a thread with the "_______ is crap, or "I'd never own ________" just make comments, provide no information, and often, have never owned, or shot, the guns in question should just ****. Yet, they portray themselves as knowledgeable of the gun. Perhaps via osmosis?
I've had much more trouble with the "standards" than the "cheap" brands. Colt, HK, Sig, and S&W have all headed back to the factory because of failures, some of which would have been catastrophic if I hadn't known enough to understand what I was looking at. Some of these guns were in the $1000 range, and should certainly have had better QC.
I have a collection of guns that was work-related, and runs the gamut from Astra to the Yugoslavian Model 70, in handguns. Values are all over the place. The one thing that I have found out of them all was that any of them can be finicky about bullet profiles, weights, and velocities. They can also be made to work reliably with mostly minor tweaking.
The largest complaints about guns today tend to favor the "I shouldn't have to" excuse. I shouldn't have to clean it before firing it. I shouldn't have to let a semi-auto break-in. I shouldn't have to shoot bullets that are reliable in the gun, instead of the latest death-ray blaster out there. I shouldn't have to tighten anything once I've bought it. I shouldn't have to examine the gun before taking it home. Yadda-yadda-yadda.
We don't have as many gun snobs as we do gun wannabes, who LIKE to think that they have enough knowledge to actually be able to compare guns without falling back on "I read, my buddy, or the gun shop guy said" crapola.
