That fudd mini 14 is about to be an illegal assault weapon here in VA š
Prepped-n-Ready@reddit
Its already illegal in Commiefornia
tghost474@reddit
Wait really?
SOSB-Haru@reddit
It's not
You can legally have one, it's just neutered because it has to be fixed or featureless
tghost474@reddit
Ah
Asmallfly@reddit (OP)
No1s are under threat in Canada because they can be chambered in 10,000 Joule cartridges. Madness!
Shoddy-Solution4815@reddit
It did win at least one war⦠sort of š
/s
timparax@reddit
So pretty
NextEstimate1325@reddit
That Mini-14 is the antithesis of a fudd gun in that configuration.
Great collection though.
Electronic-Split-492@reddit
You got some nice A-Team kit there.
garandruger@reddit
Ruger No1s fuck
SPECTREagent700@reddit
In 1972, a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire The A-Team.

Deathcat101@reddit
Ruger no.1
Nice score bro. I really want one in 45/70
Asmallfly@reddit (OP)
Too fucking much. Price of admission was 2600 w/tax&ship.
With rumors of Beretta attempting a hostile takeover of Ruger, if they succeed, they will almost certainly kill the No1 for good--at least that's what I tell myself.
Deathcat101@reddit
That'd not too far off what I've seen on gb. 1500 to 2500
Although I don't think I've seen one in 308 before.
308 is actually kinda small for this type of rifle. I bet it doesn't kick at all.
Asmallfly@reddit (OP)
The No1 has been in limited production since 2013; I was looking at the Ruger back catalogs and you'd have to go back to 2012 to see the No1 in mass production/normal calibers. Meanwhile GB is full of 270s, 243s, 22-250 and safari calibers, heavy barrels, optic only etc. Different strokes and all, but I'm not interested in stabling exotics.
A No1 in 308 with wood/stainless/and express sites? That trips my trigger.
Matt3855@reddit
.270 is an exotic? ITS OLDER THAN .308!!
Asmallfly@reddit (OP)
Fair point!
Iām pretty picky about my caliber inventory in my safe. 223, 308, 9MM, 45 ACP, 12GA
My hypocrisy āI do have a Garand in 06 because Iām an American and I do have a 7.7 Arisaka family bring back, and a Yugo M57 in tokarev.
Sighā¦
Matt3855@reddit
I have a 12 gauge slug gun with a rifled barrel, .30-30, .270, 6.5CM, .300WM, 5.56, .45ACP, .380ACP, 12 gauge, 20 gauge, .410, .41 Rem Mag, .22LR, .17HMR
I need a new 9mm
Still need to get .308, .30-06, 7mm Rem Mag, 6.5PRC, .300PRC, and .25CM
I like variety
Asmallfly@reddit (OP)
That is caliber masochism! Do you reload?
Matt3855@reddit
not yet. I have a lot of .270 brass to play with
Sliced_Orange1@reddit
I really hope that doesn't happen, Ruger is one of my favorites and I'd be afraid of Beretta discontinuing any of Ruger's products that compete with Beretta's own offerings
fordag@reddit
I have a Ruger No.1 Tropical in .416 Rigby. Beautiful rifle.
TacosNGuns@reddit
One day at my club an older guy had his no1 in 416. He let me shoot it. Damn that was memorable (painful)!
fordag@reddit
Shoot it the same way you would a shotgun, using the push pull technique.
Theworker82@reddit
You'll be the envy of the bench rest shooters.
GeneralCuster75@reddit
Not with a mini-14...
Theworker82@reddit
Bench rest shooters = Fudds. Fudds love older mini 14s even though the older ones have accuracy issues. Fudds make no sense.
monty845@reddit
That barrel profile is the new version of the mini-14...
GeneralCuster75@reddit
Not every bench rest shooter is a fudd.
Theworker82@reddit
Found the Fudd
TacosNGuns@reddit
I own all kinds: hunting, target, practical/tactical and historical. You come off as small minded and of limited life experience.

GeneralCuster75@reddit
Lol, lmao even
Animaleyz@reddit
The other day I saw a guy with a full size tripod at the range, teng to zero in a scope. The problem waxed that this particular range only goes 40 feet, so he couldn't even get it focused properly
Ok-Return7750@reddit
Jim Zumbo - the original FUDD - would say that Mini 14 āassault rifleā is completely unnecessary. Same with that 1911.
At least he got soundly kicked by the shooting community and that term Fudd will remembered forever.
Matt3855@reddit
Well thatās gun community lore i didnāt know existed
Ok-Return7750@reddit
It happened in 2007.
Zumbo had a hunting TV show and a hunting magazine column sponsored by some of the big firearms companies.
Then he wrote an article calling AR15s āterrorist weaponsā.
It kicked off one of the biggest shit fights I think Iāve seen in the gun community.
It suddenly shone a blazing light on that schism where some of the firearms community doesnāt support - or even hates - other parts of it.
Although that attitude had already been seen in Australia in 1996. I heard plenty of people say āwhat do you need a semi automatic rifle for?ā and instead of all gun owners standing together, they tossed those owners of semi auto rifles under the bus.
Unfortunately you can still see that attitude at gun ranges today.
TacosNGuns@reddit
I hunt with and AR10 and disagree with Zumboās position. That said cancel culture certainly has taken over amongst our āfreedomā loving 2nd amendment folks.
ElmoZ71SS@reddit
Shit I always thought the mini 14 was cool but never got one. Also own 3 1911ās⦠guess Iām a fudd⦠with a SBR and 3 other ARs lol
moving0target@reddit
Mini14 is a Fudd gun? Last time I had one at the range, they couldn't talk enough trash about the rifle and me just for associating with it.
DrunkensAndDragons@reddit
That is a team of nice guns you got there
TacosNGuns@reddit
I only see one Fudd gun
locolarue@reddit
I like the nickel look on the Ruger.
Givethatboyabeer@reddit
As I get older the allure of fudd guns only grows stronger
Toshinit@reddit
Mini-14 has drip, and drip is enough
