Nothing humbles you faster than a well-worn used gun

Nothing humbles you faster than picking up a quality used gun with 50,000 rounds through it that still runs cleaner and tighter than your brand new one..
 
That’s when you realize some guns age like fine whiskey, meanwhile the new one is still learning manners.
 
I once got my hands on an old military pistol that had been shot a bunch, and it still ran smooth, it made me realize that some guns are made to last forever
 
I recently picked up a used 686, and it's probably got fifty thousand rounds through it, easily. But that thing locks up tighter than any of my new production stuff. They just don't make them like that anymore, I swear.

That kind of wear just proves it was built right and actually used the way it should be.
