Purchasing a firearm can be a very difficult thing to do. As I mentioned in class, I have a hard time not purchasing a firearm when I get my tax return back. I have gone through the process of purchasing a firearm more than once and it's never easy. Even though there are purchases of much higher monetary value that take less consideration, why do us uneducated gun purchasers take so much time to make our decision. It could be because we don't know who to ask for the right information. Company websites are a good source, but they're going to be biased toward their own products anyway. Friends and family members are also a good place for information, but if they are older collectors than they are also biased to the brands they have been using for years and years. I've always found that the best source is the guy behind the gun counter at a prestigious retail location. Even though they will generally push you towards a more expensive purchase, I feel that they are usually good hearted and willing to help. But maybe I've just had good experiences myself.
