I’m a grumpy bastard because I can’t find a gloss scope anymore.
matte matte matte
My deersticks are all-weather, stainless and ‘tupperware’. They have to be to clank on every steel step and iron cheese grater metal in my stands.
If I’m gonna ease down behind the house and sit on the ground and behave, I‘ll take blue and walnut.
And who still knows what a damn cheese grater is? Little fat face kids with their already shredded store-bought cheddar. You worked up an appetite doing the cheese and setting the table. Now the meal IS that bag.

I just sold my last AR a few weeks ago. I can't stand them. Give me a lever action 357 for self defense and I'm fine. I don't plan on dying in a firefight. I haven't been able to cotton to them either. My son is good with them but he's in the military.

Yup. I like a gloss scope on a classic rifle.

I don't own an AR. Just don't like the looks of them,don't care how good they shoot. I like a nice mini 14 or 30 in lumber. For that matter any rifle with good quality wood or synthetic. Fugg the tuperware. Have a closet full of that crap I have removed from rifles thru the years.
Just because you're offended doesn't mean your right.

A .357 lever action wants to be a .45 LC when it grows up! Henry makes some nice ones. Jerry

Please explain the difference between "synthetic" and "Tupperware".

I like the classic look. A stainless with a study "handle", is fine as well.

i dig both for different reasons. i regularly hunt with some of my 100 y/o remington pumps but the weather has to be right. took my '65 760 carbine '06 out the last day here in PA and it was a downpour. luckily a nice 8pt made the mistake of turning at the last minute mid-morning. the 760's stock was white when i got back to camp. i hung that gun muzzle down and it dripped for an hour. felt kind of bad but then again, its no safe queen and has seen plenty of those kind of days. if the weather is crap, my go-to is a ruger 77 frontier in 338 fed. stainless, laminate and vinyl sling. if they ever get their schit together in this state and allow semi auto rifles for deer hunting, i will most likely get something like a 350 legend AR. the older i get, the more i appreciate a light rifle and AR's carry nice. nothing like an AR to blap off a few hundred rounds out back either.

Looking in my gun room, I’m about half on synthetic/stainless/laminate/AR/poly-frame stuff and the other half is walnut/blue/lever/gloss stuff. It’s acceptable to appreciate both. Some of the newer stuff has very little character, but makes for great tools when you don’t want to abuse your blued steel items.
Now with even more aplomb
