I was shooting my AK (see left) and this Fudd had been giving me looks the whole time I was there. He packs up and is leaving and walks by me while I'm still shooting and under his breath mutters, "Fucking terrorist." And it wasn't in a light-hearted, joking manner, but he ovbiously meant it as an insult. I usually don't give a shit what other people say, but that just really fucking pissed me off. I just ignored him, because I didn't want start a bunch of shit with a loaded rifle in my hands. But now that I'm not holding a weapon,
|
|
I tend to be much more direct, I would have said it to his face.
|
|
I'm sure he senses your retort all the way across the expanse of the internet.
|
|
I tend to avoid going around insulting people that are holding loaded firearms.
|
|
where were you shooting?......i've heard what do you need that for blah blah blah when shooting ebr's....haven't been called a terrorist though...
|
|
i would have turned around and say what the fuck you say? he would have been most likely very surprised.
|
|
I find it sad that certain individuals assume the tool makes the terrorist and not vice-versa.
Of course, you were probably getting tighter groups with your AK than said fudd was getting with his uber tactical deer rifle setup judging from the fudds I've seen around here. |
|
I might be a noob, but didn't the AK / PKM series do way more for the communist / socialist movement than it ever has for the "terrorist movement"?
I think he was jealous of your rifle or shooting skills on top of being quite ignorant. |
|
We're our own worst enemy with assholes like the one you encountered
|
|
I applaud you for biting your lip.
I would have screamed, "TERRORISTS? WHERE? HIT THE DIRT!" then started bump firing. |
|
Are you sure he wasn't calling you a terrorist because of your beard, dark complexion, and turban you were wearing?
Maybe you shouldn't be yelling "allah ackbar" so much while shooting. terrorist |

Was it Jim Zumbo?
I was very pleased today. I saw more AR, AK, Mosin Nagant, FAL, etc. Than I have ever seen at the range. A few guys were trying out their first "EBR". This is VERY good! I helped out a couple of folks and generally had a great day at the range. One issue was a bit scary though. A fellow was trying for a while to chamber a round in an Armalite AR. When I saw him straightening out a piece of wire I asked if he would like to use a cleaning rod, he said ok. When we assembled it, he proceeded to push out a bullet from the chamber. It had burned residue on the back side, as if a round with no powder had been fired and the primer had unseated the bullet just into the lands, so it came out easily. Thank GOD it wasn't just a little deeper, or a KaBoom would have resulted. He said his son was using it last, with his reloads.... It functioned perfectly after removing the obstruction. Be careful handloading, guys! |

Were you bumpfiring from ther hip or actually using sights?
If you were acting like a dirt shooting retard that's one thing. But if you were using the sights & hitting the target then he's just a typical Fudd faggot. If it's not some overpowered boltgun with a Hubble sized variable scope that you use to blast Bambi point blank from a baited treestand ambush then it's useless, don't you know. The fact that one mag for your AK holds more rounds than he'll fire in 5+ years of sighting in & hunting must mean you're some kind of psycho. |
|
No shit...if you'd have been a fucking terrorist he'd be dead! That thought never crosses their minds |
|
|
Should have turned around and said, "Where?!?"
Make him say it to your face. Or you could chalk it up to the pussification of America... and there is no hope of reversing that. Matt |
|
A good reply would have been, "If you really thought I was a terrorist you wouldn't be spouting off to one with a loaded AK in his hand. You just have a complex against weapons you don't like, Elmer"

|
Maybe it was his prayer rug / shooting mat. |
|
|
I woulda have said" good wuck huntin wabbits jackass!" and just laugh your ass off! He woulda and beat his fat wife!!!!! I dont tolerate narrow minding or ignorate comments from undereducated liberal fools!
|

I recommend that this get tacked so next time someone comes on here getting pissed off at us for thinking we are calling him a 'Fudd' because he owns a .30-30, we can point him to this thread to let him know what a 'Fudd' truly is.
|
|
I would have said something. Something like "Fuck you, you slackjawed elmer fudd little bitch."
but I tend to be confrontational when somebody is an asshole to me. |
|
|
|
Most ranges I go to are at least EBR tolerant. Generally no one will say anything if you know how to shoot. Start in with the bumpfiring, that's when people will say something. (PM me with the range, if you don't mind.) |
|
|
I would have told him to fuck off to his face, wouldn't be the first time at a range either.
|
|
This. Followed by your middle finger. Fuck the high road when it comes to that kind. Give them both barrels and a hearty 'fuck you'. |
|
|
Ignorant fudd-fag.
Types like him will be the first in line at the roundups. Types like us will be freeing them from the indoctrination camps. |
|
My cousin and I were shooting 16" ARs at the range once when some fudds started complaining about the "loud damn machine guns." This prompted my cousin to get out his 10" FAL.
|
|
Yep. a tacked thread to clarify the actual definition would save a lot of hurt feelers of people who go out of their way to take offense, where absolutely NONE is meant. I will add that we do need to be very careful not to offend folks who simply don't own or "like" using EBR's. As long as they respect my right to own them, they're cool with me. I hear guys on this site speak about guys at the range with "FUDD" guns, in a negative way. That's pretty much how actual FUDDS speak about EBR owners. It really does work both ways, IMO. |

In before the blame!
I use to hate having to shoot at the ranges up in Washington. I'd take a day off and pay my $8 or $10 to sit out of the rain and shoot. There'd be three or four retired guys there shooting handloads out of carved walnut ammo blocks one round every half an hour. I'd bring my ghetto AR and shoot hundreds of rounds an hour putting them into one little ragged hole using iron sites. Normally the old folk don't like the brass raining down on them so I try to grab the far right side lane. |
|
Might just have to get me a fiddy for when this kind of stuff happens. "Oh you want loud?????!!!!!" |
|
|
Who was it that said Zumbo would change? I never believed he would change, now we have proof.
|
|
I disagree. Types like him will be the ones "ratting out" others, trying to curry favor by being Vichy or Judenrat gunowners. |
|
|
I actually have a braked (((300 Jarrett))) that comes out when I hear this type of asshattery. That fucker is LOUD! They are usually happy when the AR comes back out... |

This. |

The range I go to only allows one round at time for centerfire rifles, which is a pain in the ass for an AK with no bolt hold open. But it is five minutes away and I know all the range masters pretty well, so I don't really mind putting up with it. I was just sitting there shooting bench at 100 yards one round at a time. |

Don't worry, the guy is gay, and he probably hates life 'cause he's stuck in the closet. Allow me to prove my assertion.
Your rifle is a rifle. He judged you based on the rifle you had. He judged your rifle based on the way it looked (and not how or why you use it). To judge solely on aesthetics is to circumvent utility. Utility is the cornerstone of man. Women judge using aesthetics. Hence, he judges like a women while foregoing utility = Gay. |
|
I had a fudd range operator this weekend say that they made the AR15 to keep the ammo companies in business...
|
|
You should have put on your best gun store ninja face and given him a story about "how this AK saved the lives of me and 17 of my fellow Delta Force commandos at Tora Bora, back during Operation Anaconda." Tell him that you and your mates were taken captive, and that you took it off a dune goon after killing him with a toothpick.
|
|
I have a new goal in life:
To be called a terrorist at the local range. |
|
+1 set the rifle down on the bench and throw a shitstorm |
|
|
Lol that's hard to argue with. |
|
|
I'd have smiled sweetly and called him a terrorist sniper and that all scoped bolt action sniper rifles should be banned.
|
|
You wouldn't happen to be from Kerrville would you? |
