I get so tired of the "save until you can buy a Kimber/Colt/SA/Seecamp/Korth...." crap I see on the boards. While I own several guns which were by no means "value-priced", I really enjoy buying reasonably priced weapons and trying them out. For the most part, I have not been disappointed.
A prime example is my Charles Daly FS .45ACP. I plan to pick up a couple of other "cheap" guns in the next few months: a Makarov (probably Bulgarian) and an FEG 'Hi-Power' specifically. I can probably pick up BOTH of these guns for about $400 TOTAL.
Some of us don't want (or aren't able) to spend $750-$1000 on a new gun. Yes, I would love to own a Baer Thunder Ranch special or a Gunsite Service Pistol, but I can't afford those guns.
So convince me. Why should I wait a year to save that much money for a single gun when I can take a much smaller chunk - more often - and purchase several guns?
