Agreed that the 45 is objectively better, but also somehow boring. The Scorp is nice, when it works, and a 70s icon. And they are surprisingly accurate if you get a good one.
Also agreed that other guns are more readily appealing for plinking. In my case, the Diana LP5 and various Webleys, esp the Senior.
Someone should do an objective test. Scorpion v 45 v Diana LP5 Magnum v Diana LP8 v Browning 800. Etc.
