It's not a learning curve it's a hobby. Unless you are simply looking for the perfect "tool/weapon" and when found it all stops the it's a hobby and those all tend to get expensive.
If you are simply trying to find the best tool then yeah it can be a bit of an expensive learning curve.
I, myself, have a super expensive hobby. I am not a gunfighter, door kicker or God willing not likely to ever been in a severely violent confrontation so for me they are primarily first and foremost toys. I have NO DESIRE for them ever to need to be a WEAPON. None, nada.
That being said its still cheaper then hookers and heroin and money spent tinkering can be just as rewarding then simply getting perfect out of the box.
