Ain't freedom of choice beautiful like that?

If you don't like something, you just don't like it. There's no need for any of us to justify what we like and don't.

I've had a sackful of 1911's and 2 Garands. We never got along. All great guns, but we just never learned to like one another. Just one of those things I suppose.

I would much rather grab my M1 Garand or K98 to take to the range than my Mosin. Any opinions either way?

Well, some of us can't afford a Garand. Why don't you give me yours, so I can compare it to the junky Mosin I have, and I'll keep whichever I like best?

hehehe, I LOVE having the bayonet out on my '44 when I go to the range. It's says "I may not be a pretty rifle, but I'll F*** you up one way or the other"

If ya want rid of that 91/30, shoot me a PM.

When I brought mine home I attached the bayonet. My wife just looked at me and said WHY? I said because I can!!

**SUNTZU** · 05-14-2009, 08:43 PM

It is the closest thing to a howitzer that I can afford.
