Bingo, Flash about hit it on the head though he felt to him it was NOT a "status symbol" but in fact it is, ALL luxury items are bought by those who can, do ( or think they can) afford one...in the hands of a GOOD shooter, an Air Force Premium Grade 1911A1,will shoot as well as any of the top dollar guns out there......its in the hands of the shooter and how GOOD they really are. Just watch any of the top ,military service shooters and their guns are built AND maintained by their branch service armorers..........
folks spend the money cause it's a "good feeling" buy ,its gotta make them shoot better cause its a "such & such" custom build............
the target don't know the difference nor does the 'dead' hunting game or the 'bad guy , "perp".........you got the money , you buy what YOU want, I know my limits and I know where my guns shoot and what they are capable of, and NONE of them cost over $500...........one hole groups, are one hole groups, tough to improve on that...........I KNOW I'm gonna hit what I'm aiming at...................besides, if they were'nt 'making money' and putting out a GOOD product, they would NOT be in business for very long..........
Don't forget the 'top gun' civilian shooters for the MOST part are "sponsored" so they are using stuff that is paid for and maintained for them,as well as all that ammo they get to practice with........ :wink:
