I can't tell you how many times I have heard people say this to justify their crappy pistol or caliber choice. You know, so they can admit defeat but try to bring you down with them by trying to get you to think you are all in the same crappy situation. This doesn't fly for me for several reasons, and I hope a little logic will cause you to agree.

If you frequent alot of gun forums and talk to alot of the people on them, you may notice a peculiar pattern. These people, not all of them, seem to be the source for alot of the theories that other people adopt. Things like "stopping power" and "my gun is accurate" are seen on almost all posts. Now this doesn't mean that these places are not a source of knowledge, but I would advise people to learn things from credible sources. If one of these characters is able to reply to every single post and response on the post day in and day out, where do they get the time to learn about anything from experience?
