Yeah, many gun enthusiasts tend to promote & support their favorite brands like they do their favorite sports teams.

Guns are like boots. Pick something you like and can afford, or just use what you're given and make it work. Some may be better than others when it comes to mission-specific needs, established user familiarity (without time for more training), availability, support, etc ... but it's just another short gun being used for short gun tasks, right?

Guns are just equipment, but investing in the user can pay longer term dividends than the short term cost of some piece of equipment that comes in a box.

Easier for many enthusiasts to admire the contents of what comes in the box, though.
