Embracing my Fudd Heritage

Nice rig. No you have to go deer hunting Old School.

 

[Claybuster]

I won't sully it's Fuddness with an all copper bullet, I think I have some 180gr Partitions on the shelf, so I'll try them out. After all, Partitiond were pretty cutting edge back then!

Partitions? Good heavens, man! For true Fuddness only Core-Lokts will do.

....... as opposed to the old Fudd look.

That's classic! See-through mounts...and no rear sight to see through them! I guess that one's just set up that way so that the scope can be used as a carrying handle.

Seriously, this is a wonderful thread. Congratulations on that wonderful old gun, and don't worry...getting it the way you did is far preferable to the alternative, and unfortunately much more common, method of acquisition.

Yup, I guess the corelokts predate the partition by almost 10 years. But I don't have any.

I cut my teeth in hunting with Dominion, Kling Core Soft Point.

This is the new Fudd look here.

What do you call that? TactiFudd?


Gates, not a bad looking specimen you inherited there, should suit well in a few years once you're old enough to know you don't need a .375Ruger to kill anything in BC.

That is truly the mating of Fudd and Mall-Ninja.

I, on behalf of the One True Fudd, welcome you back into the fold.

That was an actual rifle built up by an actual person here who actual posted pics and asked for opinions.

It really didn't end well for the poor lad.

 

[SHELL SHUCKER]

Nice Remington & I hope you at least gave Pa a big jug of his favorite swill, along with a moose steak dinner in return for the wonderful gift.

That was an awesome thread.

As far as magazines are concerned there are lots of choices, I think. Unless my CRAFT disease is really kicking in any of the 74 series i.e. 740,742 74 will work and likely the 750. Also the 760 & 7600 will work without the action hold open deviance on the last round.

Also missing -the deer hunting scene "skillfully" carved into the buttstock and your SIN number etched into the receiver.

The SIN etching into the receiver.... was that an RCMP advised thing from the '70s? Hard to imagine doing that kind of thing now.

 

[Shooter1971]

ALL fudds have at least 2 magazines. 10 shots is nothing let loose on a moose in a swamp running at 500 yards.

No, K Tel or some other company started peddling etching pens and people started marking anything they owned. Lots of firearms were etched with SIN's and I still have a Lee Enfield so marked.

Or a bull standing on the opposite lake shore... keep banging in a rainbow arc until Canadian Tire runs out of bullets.

Too bad it's 30-06 I have what I believe is the right clip for it here but is says 308 on it and no rifle to use it in. Found it in a box of odds and ends at a auction. it was still full of ammo when I found it. Nice rifle would love to have one myself especially if my dad had owned it first.
