If it can keep one of my more expensive guns from getting damaged, then as far as I'm concerned... mission accomplished.

Plus... it's ugly enough that the person borrowing it will have incentive to buy his own gun.
I wouldn't say wanting a shitty gun for a loaner is selfish. So far I've had one gun broken (G36) and another part lost from my FA-MAS because of letting other people handle it.
