Always wanted to know ---- scared to ask!

Tried the Search feature. No luck.

(Managed to find the "troll" definition for myself so no yelling at me please. I've done my best.)

Anyone??:confused::confused:
 
I am assuming that fudd is short for Elmer Fudd. Meaning that the person being called a fudd is a Stupid hunter.

That is just my best guess.
 
Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt... IE the anti-gunners say that harper will eliminate gun controls to create FUD in the publics mind and sway the undecided voters..
 
Incorrect.

A fudd is a gun owner who believes that a hunting rifle,( so long as it is wood and blued, and in a lever, bolt, or single shot action) is the only gun that people should be allowed to own, and that all firearms outside of this narrow scope should be banned.

They belittle and insult anyone who may own/wish to own anything that can be fired with one hand, has any resemblence to anything military, and in general: Any firearm that you wont see in a picture from a 1950's deer camp. (claybuster will be along shortly to prove this statement true)

Fudds are the Canadian Firearms owner's worst enemy, as they are on the "inside", yet will happily and giddily throw any other owners group under the bus.

Do NOT be a fudd.

If you like to shoot it and it goes bang, you are my brother. I don't care what it looks like, pistol, revolver, AR, or winchester 30/30....we stick together.....period.

It's not a bad idea to throw in some "Be wery quiet, I'am hunting wabbit" with it.

Thanks folks! An interesting admixture of replies. Now I understand several new things!

(Oh yeah. And I thought I had seen every Bugs Bunny cartoon that ever was made and yet here is a new one!!)

This should be the go-to response whenever this question is asked :)
 
A Fudd is someone who:

  1. Actually uses his guns in the activity for which they were intended.

  2. Doesn't think guns are a fashion accessory or a political statement.

  3. Doesn't select his guns based on what is on TV, in a movie, or the latest video game. "Yeah dude, it's just like the one Pacino had in Heat."

  4. Doesn't get the appeal of Airsoft and stopped playing with toy guns by age 10.

  5. Sees just as many gun errors in a movie as anyone else. Doesn’t feel the overwhelming need to mention it to everyone around him in the theatre.

  6. Has a bear defense gun because he actually goes places where he might encounter a bear other than the zoo.

  7. Thinks several hundred dollars spent on tactical crap to hang on a shotgun just to look badass is a waste of money.

  8. Thinks several hundred dollars spent on ammunition for a shotgun is money well spent.

  9. Believes that bragging about shooting a grouse with an 8" pump gun is as retarded as shooting a 3 gun match with a Krieghoff K80.

  10. Thinks anyone who says they frequently outshoot regular clay target shooters with their badass tacticooool "shottie" is not telling the truth.

  11. Sees a place for camouflage. The mall isn’t it.

  12. Uses the hunting rifle that is best for the job and isn't interested in hunting with a tacticoooool rifle just to make a political statement.

  13. Is more interested in precision use of a firearm at longer ranges and not rapid fire, spray and pray at 7 yard targets as big as a door.

  14. Has never shot a pumpkin and believes the appropriate weapon is a large knife artisically wielded at Halloween.

  15. When he doesn’t like what government is doing doesn’t think building a bunker, buying more guns and setting up claymore mines is a viable response. He does think joining the political party of his choice and actively works for and supports their candidates is.

  16. Doesn’t start to shake when he sees a police car. Understands they have a job to do even when he gets a ticket.

  17. If he has an encounter with the police doesn’t say “I pay your salary” or “I gots might rights.” Figures the police officer already knows that and if they don’t the side of the road isn’t the time or place.

  18. Thinks Molon Labe is a scented bath water product for women.

  19. Doesn't support a world where every dork drawing breath should be allowed to own whatever he wants without some conditions, universal registration NOT being one of them.

  20. Is someone for whom guns are an important thing but not the only thing.

Should read:

#19 is willing to throw every other shooter under the bus including you and future enthusiast if it means his cranky old tired ass can shoot targets until he finally drops dead.

To the OP: ignore Claybuster....his definition stems from some deep set personal issues, and as such, should be given about he same credibility as diet advice from Wendy Cukier :)

My definition is the accurate one.

What you are really saying is that your definition is the only one.

Do not tell the OP to ignor anyone's opinion. Tell him to read them all and make up his own mind. To the OP, with WW's talk of personal issues, keep in mind who seemed to make this personal when the thread was started. By CB's definition I am a Fudd, but I got to admit that I shot a pumpkin once:redface:
