Who can actually afford to shoot right now?

If you want to talk pretentious snobs, then we should be talking about 1911 owners.

See what I'm talking about Walleye? This club is getting hostile.

Don't worry Cruzans I got your back.

The last 3 years have been the time to buy knowing this year would be insane. If you missed it, you missed it. Same can be said the last 30 years, some of us missed out on $40 cases of surplus 308. Myself, that was due to being in middle school lol

I wish HK would make a 1911...then we can all sit at the same table and scoff at you peasants

Who needs a puny 1911 when you can have a MK23?

The pretentious HK snobs are. I guess buying 2-3 guns @ $3000-$4000 each over a couple months doesn't pinch their budgetary constraints. Times like these are certainly tough, especially for new shooters.

Someone sounds jealous.

As for me...I don't shoot much, I've been gathering for a while, have always collected and saved my brass (knock hoarding all you want) and gathered up all I need to reload, so as long as I don't shoot more than I do now I should be good for quiet a while

Maybe a bit.

I know many HK owners, I've never known them to be pretentious, nor snobs.

I'm an owner of a few H&K firearms and that description certainly does not apply to me.

I'm kind of snobbish but I would not describe myself as pretentious.

Thank you.

The snob comments come from high point owners.

Hey guys, I was just joking. No offense intended. I spend a good bit of time over on HKPro and most members there are great. The pretentious snob comment is a little bit of a joke over there. Apologies.

If it ain't in .45, then it ain't a 1911, it's just some bastard creation that St. Browning would not approve of.

That*s because JMB would have told you to get one of those much improved BHP*s.

Ding, ding, ding!

I'm in pretty good shape except I wish I had another case of 9mm subs. It's times like these that do bring new people to the gun/shooting world and that's a good thing overall. I do feel for them. Not everyone has been in the fold long enough to stockpile.

To the OP, I can afford to shoot if I could find a local outdoor range!

Here's a chick that could use some of your professional help.

the expensive ones are bolted on so they aren't easily stolen.
(honda OEM $46 a piece, bolted on so they dont fling off on the road)

only shooting on the .gov dollar. ammo is too scarce and expensive for me to even bother searching out.
even then it is sparingly...

Exactly!

No biggie and no apologies necessary.I used to post on HKPro as well a few years ago and there a few snobs when I was active there.

[Walleye Hunter]

I don't post much over there but I've bought a heap of stuff there.

I'm doing something I NEVER EVER EVER thought I would do. I'm reloading 9mm. The horror.
