That fudd mini 14 is about to be an illegal assault weapon here in VA 😔

[-]

SOSB-Haru@reddit

It's not

You can legally have one, it's just neutered because it has to be fixed or featureless

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 😝

That Mini-14 is the antithesis of a fudd gun in that configuration.

Great collection though.

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.

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!

I’m pretty picky about my caliber inventory in my safe. 223, 308, 9MM, 45 ACP, 12GA

My hypocrisy —I do have a Garand in 06 because I’m an American and I do have a 7.7 Arisaka family bring back, and a Yugo M57 in tokarev.

Sigh…

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

bench rest shooters

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.

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 “assault rifle” 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 that’s gun community lore i didn’t 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 “terrorist weapons”.

It kicked off one of the biggest shit fights I think I’ve seen in the gun community.

It suddenly shone a blazing light on that schism where some of the firearms community doesn’t 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 “what do you need a semi automatic rifle for?” 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.
