Embrace Your Inner Fudd - Lemmy.World

Because of restrictions where I live, I had to get an m1 platform and decided to go with the M1A. Figured I’d shop the look and get a 1911A1, but happened upon the Rock Island Armory GI 1911 for less than 300 bucks. Will I get a 9 mm pistol? Probably. But I learned to stop worrying and love my inner Fudd. You should too.

If liberals keep buying guns, the magas are gonna have a tactical meltdown.

Please keep it up.

The scary thing about the magas is the training. Guntube is filled with these nuts doing combat drills and all that. That being said, push comes to shove, most of them are becoming loot drops.

I’m pretty sure that for most of them, the most use their guns see is being put in the truck on the way to get a couple cheeseburgers.

M1 carbine and 1911 owner here.

You can like whatever you like.

I made my 1911 slightly more modern with an underbarrel 1913 rail. So far I’ve put a bipod on it for giggles, and a light on it for low light shooting. But it usually stays empty to fit in my favorite holster.

If I weren’t afraid of damaging something I can’t afford to get repaired, I’d strip the carbine down and do a thorough cleaning and lubrication, maybe restain the stock. It was my late grandfather’s though, so I really don’t want to damage it.

10/10, good to see people training.
