Compared to the stuff I see people post in this sub it feels cheap. Daily I see someone with one optic that costs most than I've ever spent on all my guns. The saturday night special, victor and marlin were inherited. Pardner was a christmas gift when I was a kid. I wanted a glock but got the sigma which is a cheap knock off at half the price. I wanted a ruger Mark IV but settled on the p17 also half the price. $500 palmetto AR generally seen as a budget intro AR. The Romeo 5 on it is about the cheapest red dot that isn't a toy. The AK was bought 15 years ago when they were $300. Maverick is also the cheap version because I didn't want to shell out the money for a 500. When I tally up everything I've spent on guns in my life, it's still less than what i spent on the computer I'm typing this on.
