I have to agree with you RL, telling someone to go and buy and shoot them all and see which works best is not much help. I've seen it in the bow section a hundred times. Someone ask which bow he shouldtry and he gets 20 people telling him to go down and see which one fits the best and shoot them all. Offering our opinion on what we think is best, should help someone with a good starting place.

Edit- However, bashing someone else isn't the right thing to do either.Eldeguello offers a lot of good advice, and has probably forgotten more about guns than some of us has learned.
