Many times, you’ll hear someone say, “You don’t need a $X thing. You need a $X-Y thing and $Y in training and ammo.”
This is usually used to justify buying their 3rd meme-tier pistol or rifle so that they can dress it up for Tha ‘Gram!
However, there are absolutely instances where people are, in fact, paying more than they have to, and there are alternatives that are truly “just as good.”
A lot of dudes I encounter roll their eyes at the idea of dressing well (which isn’t the same as dressing up, but that’s going to be another video). But regardless of whether we’re talking jeans and a T-shirt or a three-piece suit, what if there was a way to spend less money on the same products? Not “just as good” products, the SAME products.
With just a little time and research, you can either get MUCH higher quality for the same dollar or just spend less for the same product. Consignment shops are your friends! And even if there isn’t one around you, there are plenty of second-hand options online.
EBay and Poshmark are pretty ubiquitous. And all it takes is a little education to know what to look for.
“Spend that money on ammo & training” has been a meme on the gunternet for a while, but why not actually take advantage of that opportunity if you’re not sacrificing anything to do so?
