Guns - Level of Importance

[Winchester67]

I am outnumbered! Guess I should buy a round of Hi-Points for the house and call it a day...nope can't do it. My wife would have me committed for spending money on a Hi-Point!

You aren't outnumbered friend. Trust me.

My ambition in life is to have every known model of a Hy Point made.

And Buicks?

Don't make his head any bigger than it already is.

 

[Winchester67]

Impossible! Just ask my wife.

But it is not bragging if you can do it.

Preparedness is key, having a gun on board does not matter, until it does.

Kid Rock says that ( in so many words) in Cocky.

Another thought has occurred to me. I grew up around a lot of farmers. They're general attitude was that a gun is just another tool. Keep it handy, take good care of it and know how to use it.

Don't you mean Hy points?

There were different locations Hi-Points were built and we had to pay attention when recording them on the FFL Log. In my mind, there were also two different spellings based on the location, but it was years ago and I have happily put all thoughts of Hi-Points behind me. Until you guys brought it up. My nomenclature may be incorrect, but my assessment of the product is not. But don't believe me. Buy a new Springfield GI Model and a new Hi-Point, begin shooting and see which one cracks first!

Well put friend, appreciate your input. You obviously have broad experience in the firearms industry (proven by many of your helpful and informative comments). I publicly apologize for ragging on you. But, you do come across as holier-than-thou at times. I appreciate your success and would Love to have a cold one sometime and swap anecdotes.

God comes first and I noticed that once I do that he tends to order everything else correctly in my life anyway.

At least once in my life God has put it on my heart to give away all of my guns.

After that they became something that I use but not necessarily something that I'm really attached to

Thanks SL...I am still pretty new to the Forum, and have to say since those guys seemed serious in their devotion to a brand I have zero interest in, it made me think "If they are serious, and they seem to be since they keep the gag going across posts, then I am in the wrong Forum and need to move on". I thought of this after I logged off for the night, as my wife is on a couple of fundraising committees and I had to go to a banquet. But here it is Monday and I am checking to see what's up. Sounds like I missed a lot of fireworks logging off so early!
