Overrated/overhyped guns

[highbrass85]

This isn't meant to be a flame war, it's all subjective from perspective, just curious to know what others think are guns that have way too much hype for what they are.

I personally think-
Ruger 10/22
Ruger 1911
Keltec KSG
Desert Eagles
Any and all 50 BMGs

Really a 10/22 is on this list? Is there any other semi auto, hi capacity, with endless after market support ?

I was thinking the same thing.

No, there isn't. They have a great aftermarket, but people go on about them like it's the greatest gun since sliced bread, when a $170 Marlin Model 60 is more accurate straight out of the box. Personally if I wanted a "hi capacity" 22, I'd have to go with the Umarex Colt or S&W 15-22. Like I said, it's purely subjective. I knew that one would cause a fuss lol. Hell I even like the Mannlicher stocked 10/22

I feel that exact same way about the.....

Marlin model 60.

I'll never forget the time a guy brought one to a rimfire silhouette match because a magazine article lauded its accuracy and reliability.
