This is another one of those "it depends" questions.

What do you want to do with it?

Also, in some regards kind of a race car analogy:

"How fast can it go?"

"How much money you got?"

OK, I guess you guys don't want to discuss this. We did have a good handgun thread before, but the 1911 people were arguing that 1911s are better than HKs, etc. Seemed like a good topic, but I guess I was wrong. Or was I?

No, it would appear that you are trolling or stirring the pot, or you would define your question further and more specifically, Counsel.
