Quality: precision, excellence, accuracy, leverage, efficiency.

Quantity: repetition, numerical advantage, swarm, smother, overrun.


Which one wins?

Sometimes quantity has a quality all its' own.

Well it depends...boobage, I'd go with quantity.   Butt, definitely quality.  Lust for wild sex in a woman.....quantity.  Kinda like that.

Shermans vs Tigers

A lot of cheap hand tools vs a few very good tools.

yea, quality.  Because I have an elephants memory...I dont want to remember an ugly chick I boned 20 years ago.  So, hot chicks all the way.

Ha - I knew someone was going to mention that.

And of course it was a psychopolitician!  



ETA:  The argument in my tenure packet is quality over quantity

FALARAK used to have (maybe he still does) a sig line that read:

You can have it done:

Right
Fast
Cheap

Pick two.

If I had 2000 perfect rounds of ammo to use in my 100% always accurate AR15, against 4000 zombies, and shot perfectly accurate every time, I'd still be over-run by 2000 zombies...

So yeah, I gotta go with quantity on this one...

However...   If my bullet quality was such that I could accurately kill two zombies with every perfectly placed shot...  then my above point is moot.

I'd have to say that an AR is far from a cheap hand tool.  Maybe if you compared an AK to an M1 that would be more reasonable.

How about a night out on the town.  Four expensive imports of 15 classic domestics??

One extremely hot chick or 2 pretty good chicks?

I think I'm gonna go with quantity, because what would you do with a million bucks......"Two chicks at the same time"

Actually I was referring more to the idea that the AR was designed for quantity shooting as opposed to quality shooting.

Both.

I have a minimum acceptable level of quality that gives some over match abilities in key areas, then I base my tactics around these one or two advantages.  Generally I like "cheapest mostest" solutions b/c when your running on low numbers because all your cheap shit is broke/gone/dead you left with a single POS unit.  If you have some quality your not so bad off.

Besides whats the context?

10 AK's or 4 Tacticool AR's?

I'll take 6 AR's with key features: RRA NM trigger, RDS (aimpoint, EOTech), light attached to the regular handguards, chrome BBL.  A2 chopped carry handle BUIS.

Add FF rail as get money, MI is a good cheap rail, so is YHM.

I quit using it.  I figured out how to do all three.  

Though, I must say.... the quality of my sigs from a thought provoking perspective... may have gone downhill a bit.

I see, you are right about that.  I love my M1......but, at the time the M1  was designed for quantity shooting as well as quality shooting.

QUALITY and QUANTITY look entirely too much alike, and it took me way too long to read this thread.  

Because of this, I was too confused to remember the question, so I voted "I'm mayonnaise."

Of course, I'm wondering why "I like pie" is not a poll option

Pie..... only with the women i am married too, and love with all my heart... for the rest of my life.
