Hello,
I have several handguns on my "want list." However, funds are limited at this point and I can afford one perhaps every 6mos with all else that's going on.
I'll find one that I want, but it's not "the ONE." Every now and then however, one will call out to me. It may be identical to the one I looked at an hour ago, but something is subtly different about it- perhaps something as simple as a holster wear pattern, or something that says that the previous owner knew what he was doing, or something I can't even name. That's the one that gets bought. It doesn't matter if I go out and look for an 1872 Open Top clone. I might walk away with a Smith and Wesson Model 10. Who knows?
So, how do you choose yours? Do you go out deliberately, or wait for one to call to you?
