Glock 19 is a model of handgun that can be obtained cheap (except in California), carried on the person regardless of body type (except in California), and can be shot profciently by anyone due to the 9mm parabellum caliber.

No frills, definitely not high end.

The Walmart microwave of guns

I would say giant defy aluminum frame claris level components.

Glock 19 is not like a 90's mtb. It's a flat bar road bike

90's mtb is moist nuggest
Drop bar road bike is glock 17
12g is full suspension mtb
Ar15 is cyclocross
Ak is mtb

>>1077359
specifically the new flatbar version they have out with a 1x drivetrain. it's fairly cheap, steel frame means reliable, and it's super versatile, as opposed to the mountain bikes people are posting which are, well, mountain bikes. made for mountain biking. which you shoudn't get if you're not mountain biking.

There's a paradox between "entry level price" and "durable and reliable". an entry level ~400-500 dollar bike wont be durable and reliable. just wont happen. just like a 100 dollar gun won't.

I like guns. I have wanted a nice wooden rifle for a long time. But I don't have a place to shoot it or the time.

Projecting strong views onto other people keeps most of us from having nice things though.

Guy who wears a black bandana on a fatbike is probably posting on his own echo chamber about my weird appearance. If this place wasn't so angry I'd post a photo so we could laugh at me too.

The word you're looking for is dichotomy. A paradox is something counter intuitive or self contradictory, but true.
>an entry level ~400-500 dollar bike wont be durable and reliable.
Yes it will. It will not, however, be light weight.

90s rigid mtbs aren't really mtbs in the modern sense
they're best on slightly shitty roads or on light singletrack
pretty much perfect for city use

Giant defy because

1: Giant is the biggest mass market bike dealer sold brand in the world. Glock isn't the biggest gun brand in the world but it's most recognizable. every handgun is a glock to the media even if it's a dan wesson 1911 chambered in 10mm or a FN 5.7

2: Defy aluminum doesn't require as much maintenance as a carbon dura-ace bike like the glock 19

3: anyone can ride it since it ships with platform pedals rather than no pedals like most high end carbon full suspension hydralic disc brake equipped mtb bikes

4: can ride it everyday everywhere, glock 19 is carried eveywhere

5: Defy frameset has a high end and a low end. Same with glock. the 19 is chambered in 9mm para, little brother to the glock 17. the 17L: is a competition gun, with the glock 34 being a no frills no compromise solution to the 17 frame. Glock 18 for select fire special operations essentially a 17 with a different action.

I love hardtails, light and fast and brutal like a F1 racecar but not very comfortable compared to full suspension mtb's.
