Some people don't care if a gun shoots to the umph degree. They like art. I have built several guns that will never be shot. I have also built guns that have been shot for 55 years or more. The point is this. It's not a matter of one or the other. Nobody goes four wheeling with a Rolles Royce. The guy with the rolles Royce has a 4x4.
For years I have hunted with a Thompson center or a Lyman great plains. Every time I make a decent long rifle it gets sold before I can use it. I'm making one now I swear I will never sell but it won't be very plain.
The question should be this. Do you want a very nice looking rifle that shoots as well as any gun or do you want just a generic rifle? Who can honestly say they don't want something better.
Why do you buy lottery tickets if you don't want something better. Most of the criticism about fine guns and other fine things is a result of the fact that the criticizer can't afford them so it's denial.
Most men want a beauty in the bedroom and a cook in the kitchen so it is with guns. Poor men settle for the cook and the plain gun.
