Firearm BS thread

Gunslinger and gunfighter are words used historically to refer to men in the American Old West who had gained a reputation of being dangerous with a gun and had participated in gunfights and shootouts.

Yep he's John Wesley Hardin

 

No I know. I think he meant to say “warfighter,” which is an actual term used for a soldier.

So I’ve heard.

 

like this?

He could tell you but then he'd have to kill you.

 

God I hope not. I feel bad for all the tankers (19k) that have that dude representing them.

 

but is it still possible to get into a gun fight? If it is and it’s something you occupationally train for and do, is it not informally being a gun fighter? Just saying...

 

No. You don’t train for gun fights, you train for offensive and defensive maneuvers. Gun fights imply a lack of tactics and proper response of direct fires.

just saying...

don’t make us military guys look bad by using improper terminology.



*warfighter/ soldier/ grunt/ trigger puller...

 

He Sounds tacticool

 

I hope it’s at least the full time occupation... but if also a fire arms instructor, I suspect it’s a once a month gig.

No offense to our weekend warriors but there is a rather large disparity in skill sets. I would never compare my wrenching skills to a full time mechanic. If that’s offensive then I apologize, but that’s just the reality of daily experience.

 

Just picked this up earlier today

 

5.56?

 

Yes sir

 

Not a fan of the arm cuff thingamajig, but otherwise... she’s a beauty.

 

Thanks man. I had a ruger ar 556 prior to this. My boy has another saint and I fell in love with it. Let the build begin

 

It was actually kinda fun watching my wife pick out the furniture for her AR.

 

Anyone have a Savage MKII FV-SR in 22lr? I'm deciding between it and a Ruger bolt action.

 

I have a savage fv-sr in .22lr. Not sure if it’s a mk-ii, but it’s a great shooter. Highly recommend

 

Thanks! I just wish the magazine fit flush like the Ruger's do.
