Guns are a bit like dogs, they're all a bit different. Get to know them and you'll shoot them well (or sell'em off). One that's a stranger may take a while in the field to "warm up". This DOES give your companions some entertainment at your expense!

And by the same token, isn't it fun to buy a gun for a specific situation?
Sometimes you buy a gun, just because you like it, although you aren't exactly sure how often you'll use it. Other times, you buy a gun to fit a particular niche.
