This sounds so written by AI or someone who had very little idea of actual firearms lol. Good humor read.
I just googled what gun arnie was using in the predator lol im from Australia, we dont have guns here
Oh gotcha OK. Much better 😅 sorry!! I’m in the US. The Colt is what made it obvious. While it’s an actual manufacturer, I don’t know anyone who owns a modern day one. They’re usually collector’s items from “back in the day” WWI or WWII, or even stuff from 70s and 80s since they were mainly military issued.
I’m a fan, not crazy into it like some, but probably more than most. My wife is also an instructor for women’s self defense, basic handgun, conceal carry, and other stuff, so it’s fun to watch her work and go to the local range and shoot.
I know it’s commonly said the are more guns in the US than people, but they’re often handed down over generations and heirlooms that aren’t used or functional. I’ve got a shotgun from my great great grandfather in ~1890 era. They grew up poor in a VERY rural area, and he hunted often to provide food. My other grandfather was in WWII so we have some of his stuff too. Neither functional, just keepsakes mostly. But I think that’s why numbers are estimated so high.
I think you don’t see much colt anymore because they were matched by other manufacturers in quality but they never dropped their prices. I had an acquaintance with a side hobby/job of putting together rifles for people who wanted to source their own parts and make ‘frankenstein’ ar rifle platforms. I can’t remember exactly now (it’s been over a decade), but a high quality gun would cost you a little over a grand, and colts would start at one-and-a-half grand. Cheap ones were as low as $300 or $400.
That’s just ridiculous for most people buying a gun. The choice is often dictated by pricing, and the name didn’t do enough to counter the price for the people who would care about names, and the quality wasn’t better than cheaper guns for the people who cared about quality. Colt just willed itself off into the sunset.
Haha true story! Yeah I’ve built my AR from the ground up, and customized several “historic” models, but using alt brands. Some manufacturers from Turkiye like Tisas make a fine 1911, and Girsan make amazing Beretta 92 clones! Often many parts kits are interchangeable for certain designs which is what I love. Its like modding a car, but cheaper (usually) and while I could drop several hundred on ammo alone going to the range, it’s FAR cheaper than brakes and tires minimum after a day at the track!
