And liking what you like doesn't make you a snob. You're only a snob if you're knocking someone else's collection.
I agree. The S&W design is more durable - not so tempermental. But oh the feel of the old Colt action when everything is working. And if you really want durable and reliable just get a Ruger GP100. Very solid, but not as "pretty" in my opinion.

I don't knock other folks collections. There are a couple posters (the same two) on The Firing Line, Colt forum, S&W Forum and The High Road that are real jerks. No matter what you post about you will get some of their snide, arrogant, snobbish posts. They're alwasy correcting your grammer, your opinions and slamming your revolvers. One of them has for his avatar a picute of him wearing his graduation gown from college. I can't stand those two guys.

There is another guy called Chuck Hawks who has his own website. I swear he's almost psychotic whne it comes to his hatered for S&W. Another fellow who owns the website Gun Zone. It's amazing how much time he dedicates to his his GLOCK hate. Get a life fellas.
