As a former employer of mine was wont to say, "It's all a matter of taste and, there is no accounting for taste."

I can't afford the very best and I loathe cheapness, in anything. Also, there is a difference between cheap and inexpensive.

Fortunately, for me, there is an enormous number of old firearms in either ignored or obscure cartridges that were among the best of the best in their day....and few give them any notice. They are not cheap or inexpensive but, they are affordable and, I like them....there's that "taste" and "perspective" thing again
