Yeah, that's what I figured too.
Exactly. I never understood the thinking behind buying a low grade firearm to use as a "truck gun." If you're going to be in a gun fight, you want to be in a gunfight with the setup that will give you the greatest chance of winning.
A conversation I had with a buddy about this subject:
My buddy: "I don't want to have a $2000 gun taken into evidence if I'm in a gunfight away from home, so I will use this barebones $400 PSA instead."
Me: "If that $400 gun craps out, and you lose the gunfight, would you be willing to pay $2000 to go back and win?"
My buddy: "..."
Me: "Yeah, that's what I thought. Now quit being a dumbass and carry the best you can afford. Give yourself every opportunity to win."

If you are that worried about it… buy a duplicate of whichever weapon you’d want as your dedicated home defense/house gun, knowing you’ll likely lose it suppressor and all, in the event of a shooting and write it off. Either way, you are going to be out whatever dollar amount invested in the weapon, but as mentioned above, that should be the least of your worries.

Yet it is not our part to master all the tides of the world, but to do what is in us for the succor of those years wherein we are set, uprooting the evil in the fields that we know, so that those who live after may have clean earth to till.
DONE!
