Recently I heard an interview with a maternity ward nurse. Where she said that most of the time when the babies “are” cute. They say “what a cute baby”. But when the babies “aren’t” cute? They say “oh, she/he looks just like you!” (the parents). This made me chuckle, well really LOL. I don’t know anyone who would call a baby ugly to a parents face. In the context of airguns we know what can happen if you even mildly criticized someone’s rig. Or don’t like some attribute and voice it. Some shooters take personal offense, like you called their babies ugly. And it might start a negative “back and forth”. But rigs aren’t babies and we ought to be able to say if we find a rig or gun to be unappealing for whatever reasons. Most shooters will adapt somewhat to “their” chosen platforms. So in the end, for me, as it applies to PCPs? All personal preferences are valid, even those based on a perception.
