What are some unpopular gun opinions you have?

Most people should spend half as much money as they do on guns and twice as much on training.

Factory guns are more reliable and just as accurate before the "upgrades".

No one wants to buy your homebuilt FrankenAR to defend their family with.

:peep:
Thats why I'd take a WASR over that lil bull shiiii .22 all day.
 
Carried a revolver for years, a 5-shot S&W. Didn't worry about capacity; just accuracy . Took a NRA course a few weeks ago, and read a stat that over 80% of violent robberies/encounters/etc have at least 2 assailants. If true, that'll make you revisit capacity...

And once you stick one or two in the first guy the other bastards start running for their lives like the cockroaches they are.

Not a fan of cerakote.

.25 ACP is pointless
 
Unpopular opinions:

1.) Small frame revolvers suck. Bad sights, bad triggers, and the barrels are too short. They should come with 2.5" barrels and have full-length ejection of .38 spl cases. And big, bright sights with a H U G E rear notch.

2.) A lever-action .30-30 rifle is a jack of all trades and a master of none. I've never owned one and never wanted to. But if semi-autos were banned and people were limited to owning only a couple of firearms, then a .30-30 lever would be looking pretty darn good as a multipurpose long gun.

3.) Single-action semi-auto pistols that you have to carry "cocked and locked" (condition One) aren't good choices for most people. They're too dangerous in the hands of a novice, and among serious gun lovers who carry and shoot many different kinds of firearms, I wouldn't trust myself to remember to flick off the safety in an emergency. It would only work for me if that were the ONLY handgun I shot regularly, and I put twice as many rounds though my 1911 style carry gun than all other handguns put together.

4.) Blued steel, beautiful rich hot blueing, especially the old school kind that had a blue hue, not pure black, is the worst finish imaginable for a firearm. Easy to scratch, easy to rust, offers no protection to the gun, but is expensive to apply. If your gun is used and carried often, it makes your gun look old quickly. But it's a great finish for wall-hangers and safe queens.
