I was suprised the M1 Garand was not on there!

Cheers,

On a similarly related note:
If this Glock stress test isn't unbelievable, I don't know what is. Talk about abuse.

I kind of expected the Vulcan chain gun and 500W plasma rifle on this list...  glad to see it was realistic!

I was surprised that they included the Swiss bolt rifle.  If anything, I would have expected the German K98 but again, as Wes has pointed out, the M1 Garand would have been a better choice.

Other weapons only a real man would be able to fire...
- PIAT
- Boys AT rifle

I am very glad the 1911 made it #2

What about the FN? Or the Bren gun?  There are so many other cool manly firearms out there that didn't make the cut.
I was surprised that some version of Remington's 700 wasn't included. 

Cheers,

I guess we should ask for the "one hundred Manliest Firearms list" then...  8)

...7, 6, 5...

How long before Army Vern jumps on here makes fun of our libido insecurity for huge honking guns?

Well, I say no Vern. I don't need to compensate for my er... caliber

whether a .22 or a .50 it doesn't matter, with my aim the target is 'going down' no matter what.

I'm thinking the MG42 should be up there as well

 

[Greymatters]

Maybe a list of the top ten 'Womanliest' firearms to keep Vern happy?

Maybe a list of the top ten 'Womanliest' firearms to keep Vern happy?

My thoughts exactly.

How about this for #10 of the 'Womanliest' guns  ;D *snicker, snicker*

For those old War Studies grads out there - the old picture of Dr Haycock in the Grad Student's office with the caption "It's not a real rifle unless you can fit your Haycock down the barrel...."

Look, the important thing is, the .44 magnum made it on the list. All else pales by comparison. I mean really, what WOULD happen in a battle between Chuck Norris and Dirty Harry?

"I gots to know..."

 

[Greymatters]

Now, now, that wasnt an offer to open the floor up to penis jokes.  How about just submissions for 'womanliest' weapons.    ;D


I did a search and came up with these matches for 'womanly weapons' / 'womanly weapon' / 'women's weapons' / and 'woman's weapons' ...

1. The human brain.

2. The obvious one, or should I say 'ones' - otherwise referred to be Dolly Parton as 'Weapons of Mass Distraction'

3. Shuriken / Giant Shuriken / Throwing Stars

4. Self-Propelled Trencher (??... I dont get it either, but thats what I got...)

5. FN/FS2000 Tactical 5.56mm Bullpup

6. Poison (the old traditional favorite)

7. Hunting Crossbow

8. Golden Lasso and Bulletproof Bracelets

9. Perfume (I presume they mean the bottle it comes in, some are big enough to cause a good dent)

10. H&K USP Match 9mm dual pistols

lmao fair enough, I still found it hilarious

Back to the topic or the thread will be locked.

Dorricott, I recommend you read the guidelines because you are heading towards the fun area of p1ssing the Mods off. Keep it up and you will fine yourself on the Adminstrative Side of things.

I'm kind of partial to the Martini-Henry:

I'm not certain they still aren't making them in Darra, in the North West Frontier Province, where the Pathans are (do watch the video):

I'm surprised the Thomson wasnt on there like common a drum and clip fed, .45  sub machine gun. Its just badass.
I dont know if the clock should have made it, and I was also surprised the Garand didnt make it on there or the Enfield.
Desert Eagle?

 

[Lumber]

How could Rambo and the M60 not make the list?
