Hi Point collectors.

The polished one is the snob and the matted one is the slob.

I define it as someone who looks down on you for not owning a specific firearm/brand or not enough guns in their opinion.

The one-upper. No matter what you buy, it is not as good as his. When you ask what is a good 22lr, 22mag, deer rifle, shotgun, revolver, semi-auto, AR, AK, bb gun, rubber band gun, ........... The answer is always what ever they own.

I feel like this is a bit of an unfair assumption. Why would someone buy a gun they didn't prefer? If someone asks what .22 pistol I think is the best, I'm going to say Browning Buckmark. I think it's the best. That's why I bought it. SO am I a gun snob? Now, I do, however, realize that "best" is subjective and that someone else's opinion of "best" is just as correct as mine.

I'm not a gun snob, I just don't like crappy guns.

one that does not shoot his/her guns just stacks them up and talks about how great his collection is.

I think we have all bought guns knowing that better is out there. I would also say the Buckmark is the best. I own many 22s. I have seen people that think every gun they own is the best and all others suck. If you watch then you will figure out who those guys are.
