LC9 vs. M&P SHIELD...

[Moose242]

There are so many alternatives out there that aren't modern polymer whizbangy bullshit. I have no idea why people have decided there isn't.

Ok so Alex can you tell me why an $800 dollar Sig is better than my "junk" PF9 or Shield 40...which both carry and shoot flawlessly?
I guess I just get a bit insulted when a lot of guys try to force the idea on me that you have to spend as much money as possible buying the most expensive overpriced "brand X,Y or Z" gun they sell...and that anything less than their opinion is junk.

[Moose242]

I did not say a goddamn thing about sig.

But your PF9 is junk.

I know you didn't...I wasn't implying that you did. I was asking your opinion. Bit sensitive aren't we.
As for my PF9...its not my carry anymore but its a backup safe gun and it works great. My Shield has been 100% since I bought it..I've put at least 400 rds thru it and I trust it.

[Moose242]

Sensitive? You were the one who piped up that you get fed up about people implying that good shit ain't cheap and cheap shit ain't good, lol.

And good on you for having two pistols that go bang? But seriously, LOL at 400 rounds being the measure of a reliable firearm.

[ram57ta]

You seem angry. Sorry I asked

Bit sensitive aren't we.

I could not resist posting this. Lol.

i hate pretentious gun elitists that talk down on everything but their favorite brand.. yeah bro, im sure the shield and lc9 and other polymer guns are crap!

i think of them as someone who drove a miata for years calling it the best sports car in the world, then getting a used boxer and then not stopping about how porsche is the greatest car ever and mazda is crap...

[Moose242]

Am I being a pretentious gun elitist? Because I haven't even mentioned a make or model

I thought he was talking about older more traditional carry stuff rather than anything expensive.

We like em. They are cheaper, lighter, just as reliable, and still punch the same holes through the bad guy.

Indeed.

Sometimes, but not all-times. Embrace old, cheap guns and it will blow your mind that not only was handgun fighting not invented in the last 25 years, but shit was often made better in the past.

I have a sccy cpx2. Good gun for me and great price point for my budget.
