Post Your Guns
-MEAT-:
I can appreciate a lot of these guns from an engineering perspective, think id feel a little cheated if i got one of these plastic glocks etc though? I can see the practicalities of the lower weight and cost and all that, but surely half the pleasure of owning a gun (the other half being killing shit and posing in front a mirror) is in the tactile feel and action of it, right?

Just brought my 30/30 and 12 gauge out of storage. I am going to give them a thorough clean then post up some pics. I am pretty excited, small game season starts in two weeks and then hopefully later in the year I'll bag a deer.

Other than not being as cold as aluminum/steel, Polymer feels the same. A ton of tactical style stuff is made of some type of plastic. Glocks, Pelican/Storm Cases, Kydex sheaths/holsters, etc. Glock has proven how reliable their pistols are and I back that. I want something that I know will fire if I need it to and/or when I want it to. Pull the trigger and it goes BANG everytime, no questions asked, given its loaded with quality ammo. There's a video on youtube of a guy that takes a NIB Glock and ties it to a rope. Then pulls it behind his truck for ten minutes in the dirt. The thing gets beat to hell. He sticks a full mag in it and it fired everyone without problem. I highly doubt I'm going to be in a life threatening situation, but if I am I want to know its going to work. Glock has proven that it will time and time again. Yeah its a Polymer frame, but it shoots bullets and that's all that matters when the time comes.
I didn't buy a Glock for looks. That's what the 1911 project is for. :D
