Elmer Fudd and Daffy break into a distillery. Daffy turns to Elmer and says, “ Is this whiskey?” Elmer says: “yeah, but not as whiskey as wobbing a bank.”
Both of yall know what’s up. Almost everyone at my camp hunts with a BLR but the difference is that some guys can say “That SKS of yours wont even go through the skin!” because they used one with crap ammo, or others that tell me “you should take out that clip” referring to the internal box mag 😂
@@ArthurMorgan-_-idk what your hunting but 7.62 x39 is fine for anything shy of elk and black bear So basically ANY deer aside from like red stags and stuff😂 Sounds like they just don’t know anything about guns Hunting knowledge ≠ gun knowledge
Glad you touched on this Fudd topic! I appreciate all firearms, I have favorites but wouldn’t limit myself, just can’t afford all of them so I’ll just have to be content watching your program and others like it!
First gun I bought when I turned 18 in 1989 was a 12ga. Rossi Overland coach gun. Sold it to get a Mossberg 590 two years later. Still miss the Rossi, still have the 590.
Love my CZ 12ga. coach gun. Love watching people at the range shooting different types of firearms. A older gentleman saw me watching him a few months ago, and I got to talking to him about the gun he was shooting. I then left him in piece to continue his shooting.Wella few minutes later he came over and asked me if I would like to try the gun he was shooting.I looked at him and said ABSOLUTELY. It was an original 1800s 45-70 , Springfield Trapdoor Carbine.WOW ! I will always remember that. Not just the gun,but also the gentleman. A few weeks later I spotted a Uberti replica of the Winchester 1885 falling block single shot rifle in 45-70 and bought it on the spot. Variety truly is the spice of life .
@@StevenSmith-pt8rz That's really cool to have someone pass along love of a type of firearm, those old school single shots are all really cool in their own ways. The 1885 being a beautiful example, hope you're still loving it!
FUDD is a Mindset, not a preference for specific types of firearms. I love (Insert wooden furniture) firearms and old style weapons (Especially the interwar ones). But I don't openly advocate for gun control because scary rifle with 30 round Clipazines BAD!!!
Gun Jesus, Ian Mac Callum had a cool one on yesterday. A 30 shot repeating flintlock from the Danish museum. Patented in 1659. There's nothing new under the sun, and the left can't claim high capacity mags are something new.
I don't mind being a Fud ! I grew up hunting with my grandfather's ithica12 Guage double barrel hammer less. Love that gun. Today I mostly have recovers and lever guns.
@@aarontiffany9101 not really. People call anyone a Fudd who likes classic firearms. They think people should only want modern firearms. I prefer classics and am called a Fudd constantly. Its annoying but don't pay it any mind.
@@sailingsvzaraDo you use any of the aforementioned terms? Unless you, as a gun owner yourself, try to tell people what they should and shouldn’t own you aren’t a fudd. Fudds can prefer either classic or modern firearms sometimes both.
@@joshlowman9540 Fudd tastes are fine, there is a rich history of firearms and you have a right to enjoy whatever you like. Fudd beliefs like I listed above are not fine and detrimental to 2A rights.
Wow talking about bringing back memories! I’m 68 yrs old around 1962 (6yrsold) in New Mexico dad had me tag along hunting quail or dove! I wore his bird vest a bit over sized for me. I held a box of 12 ga shells. He would put the birds in the vest I’d hold up the open box of shells. I felt very important. Dad had a side by side 12 ga Fox I was amazed that it had a fox drew (engraved) side where the bullets (shells) went in. So barrels so shiny the wood looked like brand new furniture! I got into bird hunting in my 30s and asked if I could have the Fox. Broke my heart when he said he traded it for an other weapon. 😢😢 But those days stand out in my memory when jarred like with this video! Thanks For Taking Me Back Down Memory Lane!
Hickcock45 is not a name that will ever be associated with Fuddness in my mind. Some of my favorite universal Fudd quotes are: "Two World Wars!" "All you need is a 1911!" "All you need is a 30-06!" "Get the lady a revolver!" "What in the hell do you want one of those tupperware guns for, son?" "We dont sell none of that commie junk 'round here." "It'll ruin the meat!" "If you need more than one shot you dont need to be shootin!"
@@bjchit hmmmm....nope. Those are phrases that actual fudds say when it comes to anything post 2004 essentially. We dudebro gun people love old guns. We just dont try to tell people "thats all you need!" and are always trying to stay at leading edge of new firearms tech. Fudds really are working against us most of the time. I apologize if you felt attacked in anyway shape or form by my post as I was sensing a bit of saltiness there.
@@AppalachianMemetics It's not saltiness, it's just borderline cringe at this point how much dudebros say it to each other (and yes, they are the only ones I have ever heard use those phrases) and act like it's still funny. And I have heard "that's all you need!" from both sides.
They're always fun, even the single barrel break action. They're sleek, they're stylish. As long as there are shotgun shells they'll never be obsolete, no one will be too good for one.
The first shotgun I ever hunted with (probably 12-13 years old - Yikes! Over 50 years ago?) was a borrowed side-by-side 20 gauge. I wish I'd had the foresight to buy it from the guy in later years.
I enjoy everything from black powder to modern arms, it's just interesting to know and appreciate arms of different times -- where we've come from, where we are, and where we're headed Life is good!
Love the coach guns! Side note: A lot of Fudds in Canada wish they’d have backed the other firearms owners because the other firearms were just a stepping stone.

Thanks for the video. If I hadn't gotten sick and become disabled, I'd own a coach gun by now. If I were strongly into skeet and trap, I'd probably have an over-and-under shotgun. I always wanted a Ruger Red Label. The other nice thing about those guns for bird hunting is that the game warden never asks to see whether you have the magazine block installed because there's no magazine. My most Fudd-like quality is that there are a few things that I would never get for myself because just don't feel that I can master the learning curve at my age. I defend forever the right of others to have those items, but I just can't see myself mastering them enough that I'm willing to buy them. The example that comes to mind first is the binary trigger. If someone else wants a binary trigger, I think he/she has the right to buy that trigger, but I really can't see where I could ever adjust to shooting a binary trigger. I think I could adjust to a forced reset trigger, and I believe that people have the right to own forced reset triggers. Just because I would repeal the NFA doesn't mean that I'm in a position to buy anything that is regulated by the NFA. Some people see me as a Fudd for that reason. I'm too old and too sick to care.
To me, a Fudd is the kind of person, typically a "self-declared hunter" who says "Ya don't need an EH ARR to hunt Bambi!" It has nothing to do with taste or preferences in what firearms one owns.
It's a meaningless term now. It means whatever any individual wants it to mean at a given time to describe a plethora of different people. I too remember when it was primarily used for anti-gunners that happen to be hunters/those that think the 2nd amendment is about hunting for some idiotic reason. Now, I've seen it used to describe those with classic tastes, those that are uneducated on certain firearms related topics (or when someone thinks what someone is saying is incorrect even if it isn't, and not necessarily relating to some classic "fuddlore" either), those that prefer safeties on their guns (primarily their carry gun), people that prefer iron sights, and a bunch of other peoples and preferences. Still can be a fun term to use.
I think a fudd is just generally someone who is set in old ways of thinking. My favorite brand of fudd is the guys who think the only weapon you should concealed carry is a .45 despite more or less every major modern military using 9mm pistols. Ironically, this is the same crowd that believes a .22 is super deadly because it bounces around in the body 😂
I'm from England and both me and my wife shoot old side by sides, we mostly game shoot and a traditional English side by side is preferred on most driven shoots, i had never heard the term Fudd before
I belonged to a sportsman’s club in the Chicago suburbs that was mainly shotgun use and happened to have a rifle pistol range. I got pushback for bringing an ar 9 to the range. The club was filled with fudd’s and the club itself is not participative in responding to attacks on the 2nd amendment. I did end up canceling my membership.
This video kind of underscores why I like Hickok45 as a gun channel, always have and always will. He not only shoots a wide variety of guns and has a wide variety of tastes, he doesn't punch down on the fun aspect as much as some guntubers with more specific taste. There is definitely value to talking about disadvantages, advantages and problems with certain guns, but it's really nice to have that channel to come back to where Hickok and John just have fun with a wide variety of firearms in a laid back way. The fun aspect for me when it comes to enjoying guns is high, even if my own tastes are more old school and Fudd-y. I may never own an AR because I'm not a huge fan, but will never tell someone not to get one if they're passionate about em. Great video!
There is room for all of us... branch out indeed. If you shoot modern only, shoot the older designs. If you shoot 20th century stalwarts only, step into the 21st century, plenty of fun for all! Hickock sets a perfect example of how to do that!!
Get the pietta 1878 deluxe 20” 12 gauge double barrel made in italy I just got it and its amazing one of my favorite firearms I believe its the best 12 gauge coach gun ever made
I was born in 1998 and I love side by sides. Long barrels, short barrels, internal hammers, external hammers, even double rifles. Nothing else looks or feels as classy and cool to me.
This man has been huge in the firearms community education, knowledge and firearms safety he is the perfect example in our beloved second ammendment community. I've always loved Hickock45
Thanks for the memories. I've still got my grandpa's old 10 ga side by side. The click of external hammers still reminds me of him as he taught me firearm safety!
People online are calling anyone who is into the classic firearms a fudd. Seems to have no correlation to automatic firearms. Just cause you like shooting sports and hunting is not a bad thing. People are so warped in that thinking.
Have a million Fudds in Canada who think that gun control should only stop at traditional hunters so I know the type well. Even worse here because Canadians think we're so advanced beyond Americans not allowing our citizens self defense. (now we're told to keep our car keys by the door so intruders can just take your wheels and go) Meanwhile officials protected with guns only available to the military.
For me, it’s more of the ideology that the older guns are the only ones that are any good and think all of the newer tactical guns are all crap or think they should only be for law enforcement and military. I do love all style guns. From the latest to the greatest to the older style guns that my dad and granddads had.
Talked to an old timer at a gun shop and was surprised to find out he hunted with an AR15 in .223. I asked why he switched to the AR game and he said " aint new stuff supposed to be good? I like to use new good stuff."
I usually get told the opposite. They think my Enfield 303 is crap and I should just buy an AR. I have zero interest in modern firearms. I prefer the classics. Soi, they then call me a Fudd. But, whatever. People online are all keyboard warriors.
I’m just fine with the both. Sure, I prefer those older firearms, they gotta be one of many pinnacles of human innovation. Germans invented the first assault rifle, but isnt it cool to see how far those intermediate rounds came as well?
The cognitive dissonance some civilians have about being scared of "black rifles" while at the same time not realizing they are made for the _dumbest_ grunts and trainees in the military never ceases to amaze me.
Got to say, love my spanish coach gun , reliable and versatile.can understand why it's still one of the most popular firearmes here in Southern Europe , love your channel Hickok
HEY Hickok45, YES YOU ARE & SO AM I 🤣 Grabbed a STOEGER Coach in Cody, WY last year driving cross country,,, GOD BLESS AMERICA🤩🇺🇸 “keep up the GREAT VID’s” Stay Safe & Well Y’ALL 👍
I got a coach gun in 12, I keep it loaded with bean bag rounds because I got Javelina running around eating all my plants. They just shrug it off. I may have just created a new sport. Bean bagging Javelina in AZ.
As an all-around gun enthusiast, I've caught flak from both sides of the aisle. Got a Fudd buddy who doesn't see the point of .223 or any pistol that doesn't have a safety, and I've got a "tactical" Army vet friend who doesn't see the point of having any kind of revolver or black powder guns in general. It's all good. Put anything that goes "pew" in my hand, and it will be a fun day!
A couple of years ago I acquired a Winchester model 24 SXS. It made in the early 1950's. It was made to be a moderately priced gun for working people. It's not fancy. I own a total of 5 shotguns, that old Winchester has become my favorite.
You ought to watch Daniel Craig in one of the James Bond movies reload his side by side. He'd shoot then get behind a barrier and his reloading of it was so smooth and cool.
I have my practical guns: AR, double stack striker-fired 9mm, etc. But as soon as my practical needs were covered, I switched to getting the guns I really love: Revolvers, blackpowder, bolt actions, etc. I personally have no great love or interest in a lot of the more modern stuff. I don't dispute their practicality, which is why I own them, but I would never collect them.
First gun I shot was a single shot crack open 20 gauge. My Dad had a side by side 12 gauge. Both had hammers. They were made in the late '50s. I still have them, and shoot them, with my son. Quite a different shooting experience than my KSG.
I have 20 gauge that looks exactly like that one! I also have a 9 shot .22 revolver. Love them both, and if that makes me Fudd, so be it. BUT, I also have 3 - 9mm pistols (Springfield and S&W) and an AR15 (Daniel Defense).
I always think of my Coach Gun as "resting and relaxed" until I need it! No magazines, no compressed springs, etc. They're also great to shoot with the mini shot shells and slugs when your aging shoulders and elbows start to ache! My Coach Gun "rests" with three of each on a sleeve on the stock.
I have a double barrel 12ga that I inherited from my stepdad. He used it for dove hunting way back in the day. Many times when I’ve brought it out to shoot clays a few of my buddies have snickered into there hands until I let them shoot it, then it was all “hey if you ever decide to get rid of that let me know.”
Only if it has outside hammers Mister H !! Lol! Let my old Stevens hammer double go 50 yrs. Back, still miss it. Know of a young man who started skeet with an old double! Enjoy your Coach gun!! Blsgs, gg🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🤠☝️☝️☝️
In 1973, I bought a Rossi double, 20 inch barrels, with hammers. Love it. Still have it. They can call me a fuddy-duddy, 'til the cows come home. A few years later, I bought another Rossi, with 20 inch barrels, with hammers. I now have one in 20 gauge magnum, and one in 12 gauge magnum. Love those coach guns. Defiantly an investment in fun!!!
I saw your demonstration of the Winchester Model 1873 44/40 caliber. I remember while in West Germany during the early 1970's, I had a few German citizens walk up to me with the offer of money to buy them a Winchester Model 1894 30/30 caliber. They sold in the NCO Club catalog for $100 to Military Veteran's of active duty based in West Germany. The Winchester Level Action Rifle is world renowned. I didn't take them up on their offers. I don't know those people...
To @Hickok45. My name is armaan. I’m 22 years old and I’m in Brampton Ontario Canada. I wanna say I like your videos. Firearms and many more of your videos. They are amazing. Great and lots of fun. I hope you have a good one. And keep going for the next UA-cam video. May God bless you my friend. Sincerely. Armaan😊🥰❤️💙🇨🇦
Hey! Whats a wok? What you throw at a wabbit😊 Whats a twip? What you take on a twain?😊 My coach gun is my grandaddy's old double he cut down for some reason. American Gun Works SXS 12ga 20" barrels Have a Good Day👋 👽
I carried a 12 gauge side by side for decades! Every single time I had to go up in the high country to mend fences or look for lost cattle or just to go brookie fishing! Had it on a light rope on a large screw in eye swivel (hardware store for hanging plants!) screwed into the birds head, slung around my shoulder and down under my arm where I could reach it under almost any circumstances. Made the stock out of a piece of dried Iron wood shaped into a birds head pistol grip. The breakdown is drilled and pinned and welded so it won't break APART anymore and the barrels are cut off 1/4" past the ends of the Magnum 0 buckshot in the right barrel and the slug in the left.... I carried that thing for almost 10 years and never fired it once.... Until I fired both barrels at the same time once and it saved my life....
I mainly build and shoot flintlocks. I prefer the classic look of blued steel and wood. Doesn't make me, or anyone else who prefers wood and steel, a Fudd. I have polymer frame pistols and have owned black aluminum, steel and polymer rifles over the years. I just prefer the feel, look and beauty of a nice piece of wood and blued or browned steel. That is a handsome double you have there. Oh, and, with the exception of the 1911, I prefer revolvers to most semi autos although I have one polymer framed semi auto. I've always associated "Fudd" with attitude more than what kind of firearms he or she prefers to shoot and own.

they can't own.

He not only shoots a wide variety of guns and has a wide variety of tastes, he doesn't punch down on the fun aspect as much as some guntubers with more specific taste. There is definitely value to talking about disadvantages, advantages and problems with certain guns, but it's really nice to have that channel to come back to where Hickok and John just have fun with a wide variety of firearms in a laid back way. The fun aspect for me when it comes to enjoying guns is high, even if my own tastes are more old school and Fudd-y. I may never own an AR because I'm not a huge fan, but will never tell someone not to get one if they're passionate about em. Great video!
There is room for all of us... branch out indeed. If you shoot modern only, shoot the older designs. If you shoot 20th century stalwarts only, step into the 21st century, plenty of fun for all! Hickock sets a perfect example of how to do that!!
Always wanted a double barrel "Coach Gun" with rabbit ear hammers. I just like the look of them. Wish somebody made one today.
Your wish is my command. Google CZ hammer coach.
Get the pietta 1878 deluxe 20” 12 gauge double barrel made in italy I just got it and its amazing one of my favorite firearms I believe its the best 12 gauge coach gun ever made
I got it for $900 btw Its expensive but its the best and nicest looking coach gun and it has external hammers just like what you are looking for
gorgeous gun!
I was born in 1998 and I love side by sides. Long barrels, short barrels, internal hammers, external hammers, even double rifles. Nothing else looks or feels as classy and cool to me.
This man has been huge in the firearms community education, knowledge and firearms safety he is the perfect example in our beloved second ammendment community. I've always loved Hickock45
You've been apart of my UA-cam experience for well over a decade. Thanks for sticking around gun grandpa. We like having you around.
Thanks for the memories. I've still got my grandpa's old 10 ga side by side. The click of external hammers still reminds me of him as he taught me firearm safety!
Disparaging term: A gun owner who only uses guns for hunting or shooting sports, and who opposes the ownership of automatic firearms
People online are calling anyone who is into the classic firearms a fudd. Seems to have no correlation to automatic firearms. Just cause you like shooting sports and hunting is not a bad thing. People are so warped in that thinking.
Odd, but I own several firearms that date back over 100 years. That would define them as a “classic weapons”; ALL are semi automatic
Have a million Fudds in Canada who think that gun control should only stop at traditional hunters so I know the type well. Even worse here because Canadians think we're so advanced beyond Americans not allowing our citizens self defense. (now we're told to keep our car keys by the door so intruders can just take your wheels and go)
Meanwhile officials protected with guns only available to the military.
We love you bro keep up the gun talk..
For me, it’s more of the ideology that the older guns are the only ones that are any good and think all of the newer tactical guns are all crap or think they should only be for law enforcement and military. I do love all style guns. From the latest to the greatest to the older style guns that my dad and granddads had.
Talked to an old timer at a gun shop and was surprised to find out he hunted with an AR15 in .223. I asked why he switched to the AR game and he said " aint new stuff supposed to be good? I like to use new good stuff."
I usually get told the opposite. They think my Enfield 303 is crap and I should just buy an AR. I have zero interest in modern firearms. I prefer the classics. Soi, they then call me a Fudd. But, whatever. People online are all keyboard warriors.
I’m just fine with the both. Sure, I prefer those older firearms, they gotta be one of many pinnacles of human innovation. Germans invented the first assault rifle, but isnt it cool to see how far those intermediate rounds came as well?
The cognitive dissonance some civilians have about being scared of "black rifles" while at the same time not realizing they are made for the _dumbest_ grunts and trainees in the military never ceases to amaze me.
Man i haven't seen your vids for like 5 years now. I used to watch your vids since. It brings memory back😊😊
Wow, a five-year prison sentence? I was thinking inmates now had Internet access, but I guess not. :-)
Another great video. Thanks for sharing!
Got to say, love my spanish coach gun , reliable and versatile.can understand why it's still one of the most popular firearmes here in Southern Europe , love your channel Hickok
Love It👍👍
Hello Hickok45.
Love the, 🤠Coach Shotgun 💥💥🫶🏼
I get CALLED that for my videos at SHOOTFIRE with ASHLEY
I am a BIG FAN of your work. Your videos are my TRAINING GUIDE!!!
Aaaaand yep, its everywhere 😂😂😂
The "Sniffer in Chief" special!
Cadaver in chief 👴🏻🍦
Thanks for the definition - when I first heard the term not all that long ago I assumed it referred to a person we used to call an old fuddy-duddy!
🔥🔥🔥I doubt Elmer had the same hatred of 1 weeters 🤣
I had to say it out loud but I got it. Strange children. :)
@@woodsinme 🤣
Good advice. Do what makes you happy!
the intro to this video is timeless Hickok
sir you are definitely not a fudd lol lots love from middel TN!!!!!
Back in the 70s we had a business and sometimes worked into the wee hours. We kept a Little Brute single shot sawed off 12ga just in case.
"It's got a good spread!"

HEY Hickok45, YES YOU ARE & SO AM I 🤣
Grabbed a STOEGER Coach in Cody, WY last year driving cross country,,, GOD BLESS AMERICA🤩🇺🇸 “keep up the GREAT VID’s” Stay Safe & Well Y’ALL 👍
Class and Elagence for any man and woman.
I got a coach gun in 12, I keep it loaded with bean bag rounds because I got Javelina running around eating all my plants. They just shrug it off. I may have just created a new sport. Bean bagging Javelina in AZ.
As an all-around gun enthusiast, I've caught flak from both sides of the aisle. Got a Fudd buddy who doesn't see the point of .223 or any pistol that doesn't have a safety, and I've got a "tactical" Army vet friend who doesn't see the point of having any kind of revolver or black powder guns in general. It's all good. Put anything that goes "pew" in my hand, and it will be a fun day!
Side by side double barrel shotguns work. Took a nice turkey 🦃 this year with mine. Simple to clean, less moving parts and dependable.
A couple of years ago I acquired a Winchester model 24 SXS. It made in the early 1950's. It was made to be a moderately priced gun for working people. It's not fancy. I own a total of 5 shotguns, that old Winchester has become my favorite.
You ought to watch Daniel Craig in one of the James Bond movies reload his side by side. He'd shoot then get behind a barrier and his reloading of it was so smooth and cool.
Love it! Reminds me of old westerns!
I have my practical guns: AR, double stack striker-fired 9mm, etc.
But as soon as my practical needs were covered, I switched to getting the guns I really love: Revolvers, blackpowder, bolt actions, etc.
I personally have no great love or interest in a lot of the more modern stuff. I don't dispute their practicality, which is why I own them, but I would never collect them.
Great job Dad & Son.
First gun I shot was a single shot crack open 20 gauge. My Dad had a side by side 12 gauge. Both had hammers. They were made in the late '50s.
I still have them, and shoot them, with my son.
Quite a different shooting experience than my KSG.
What's up doc
I swear, this shotty is the exact one they used when they were designing Elmer's shotty.
I have 20 gauge that looks exactly like that one! I also have a 9 shot .22 revolver. Love them both, and if that makes me Fudd, so be it. BUT, I also have 3 - 9mm pistols (Springfield and S&W) and an AR15 (Daniel Defense).
appreciate the 4k video
Be vewwy vewwy quiet!! We're hunting *WATERMEWWONS!!!* Thanks, Hickok45!
I always think of my Coach Gun as "resting and relaxed" until I need it! No magazines, no compressed springs, etc. They're also great to shoot with the mini shot shells and slugs when your aging shoulders and elbows start to ache! My Coach Gun "rests" with three of each on a sleeve on the stock.
Great video thanks
Being called a Fudd is better than being called a Fuddy Duddy. 😂
Love my Stoeger coach, nice and accurate, and fun :)
No sir you will always remain a Legend.
thats why i liked hickok 45 videos..i enjoy watching..about guns info...
I would definitely own one. I have 4 shotguns and none double barrel. You did a great description of a Fudd in the beginning
I have a double barrel 12ga that I inherited from my stepdad. He used it for dove hunting way back in the day. Many times when I’ve brought it out to shoot clays a few of my buddies have snickered into there hands until I let them shoot it, then it was all “hey if you ever decide to get rid of that let me know.”
Only if it has outside hammers Mister H !! Lol! Let my old Stevens hammer double go 50 yrs. Back, still miss it. Know of a young man who started skeet with an old double! Enjoy your Coach gun!! Blsgs, gg🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🤠☝️☝️☝️
I have an appreciation for all machines especially the ones that go bang.
I passed up an original coach gun because I had not done my research.
In 1973, I bought a Rossi double, 20 inch barrels, with hammers. Love it. Still have it. They can call me a fuddy-duddy, 'til the cows come home. A few years later, I bought another Rossi, with 20 inch barrels, with hammers. I now have one in 20 gauge magnum, and one in 12 gauge magnum. Love those coach guns. Defiantly an investment in fun!!!
It could make you Doc Holliday. He carried one at the OK Corral
Love the coach gun! Sweet!
I saw your demonstration of the Winchester Model 1873 44/40 caliber. I remember while in West Germany during the early 1970's, I had a few German citizens walk up to me with the offer of money to buy them a Winchester Model 1894 30/30 caliber. They sold in the NCO Club catalog for $100 to Military Veteran's of active duty based in West Germany. The Winchester Level Action Rifle is world renowned. I didn't take them up on their offers. I don't know those people...
To @Hickok45. My name is armaan. I’m 22 years old and I’m in Brampton Ontario Canada. I wanna say I like your videos. Firearms and many more of your videos. They are amazing. Great and lots of fun. I hope you have a good one. And keep going for the next UA-cam video. May God bless you my friend. Sincerely. Armaan😊🥰❤️💙🇨🇦

hickok45, Pure Legend. Much Respect Sir....
There is something cathartic about ejecting and reloading shells manually in a break action shotgun. Same goes for bolt actions.
I carried a 12 gauge side by side for decades! Every single time I had to go up in the high country to mend fences or look for lost cattle or just to go brookie fishing! Had it on a light rope on a large screw in eye swivel (hardware store for hanging plants!) screwed into the birds head, slung around my shoulder and down under my arm where I could reach it under almost any circumstances. Made the stock out of a piece of dried Iron wood shaped into a birds head pistol grip. The breakdown is drilled and pinned and welded so it won't break APART anymore and the barrels are cut off 1/4" past the ends of the Magnum 0 buckshot in the right barrel and the slug in the left.... I carried that thing for almost 10 years and never fired it once.... Until I fired both barrels at the same time once and it saved my life....
this guy is a legend
I mainly build and shoot flintlocks. I prefer the classic look of blued steel and wood. Doesn't make me, or anyone else who prefers wood and steel, a Fudd. I have polymer frame pistols and have owned black aluminum, steel and polymer rifles over the years. I just prefer the feel, look and beauty of a nice piece of wood and blued or browned steel. That is a handsome double you have there. Oh, and, with the exception of the 1911, I prefer revolvers to most semi autos although I have one polymer framed semi auto. I've always associated "Fudd" with attitude more than what kind of firearms he or she prefers to shoot and own.
That gun is just a classic!
Never thought I'd hear you say mall ninja, haha. I like it.
Genial un verdadero clasico!!!💪💪💪
Hell yeah! Rock on brother!
