Embarrass myself again? Mmmmmmk
Could say the same for many PRS matches, many could get the same points with a less fancy gun, but they have the money or sponsors for something nice, so why not? Really could say the same for hunters, most could get by with waaaay less gun and still take out dog sized deer.
Glock is a great tool, sold by a pallet load, priced for the masses, hits a minute of man and goes bang more times than not, no doubt. I got a Glock 19 as a gift, nice pistol for sure and it makes a ton of sense, it doesn’t get shot much though.
For my daily carry I just like something more polished, now if this was some crazy situation where I knew the gun would be lost or destroyed because I was going to be crawling through trenches or over zombies, sure I’d get a Glock and some carharts.
I kinda think of it like this, I wear slacks, dress shoes watch etc for work, now I could 100% fit that parameter buying some of those plastic smelling “leather” shoes and belt from Walmart, could also get a pair of slacks and shirt there and pull my phone out of my pocket to tell time, that would protect my feet and cover my skin and tell time just the same, but it wouldn’t really be the same thing.
If that makes sense.
