I would define manliness as big, heavy, ugly and powerful.

Vickers Medium Machine gun
.455 Webley Revolver
Russian/Soviet M1910 Machine-gun
BAR
.30 M1918 Machine Gun
FN Model 49
M1911 .45acp
Hakim Rifle 8mm
M1928 Thompson
Dshk 12.7 Machine gun
 
Just wonder why "liberal" is USAnian word for "commie" while original meaning of "liberal" is completely opposite...

Regarding the list - Berrett is decent gun, others are... Do you realize its from 2007?
 
... the author of that **** is full of it.
Bad research, ... and bad jokes.
(I bet he compliments himself "You animal!" after giving himself pleasure.)

too many references to Odin, dark skin, non-proven arguments ...
It´s articles like that that harm the rkba cause ... more than clueless libs.
 
Real men don't select their weapons based on other people's opinions about what constitutes a manly gun. Real men also don't confuse what's on their hip with what's between their legs.

What if you're mexican carrying and sitting down?

ahahah
 
about the dumbest article I ever wasted my time reading.

No mention of the Kentucky long rifle, the gun that stood up to the British, helped win our independwence in the hands of men like Rogers rangers. Opened up the Cumbeland gap and the way west

Some of the first men west were the old fur trappers. I don't know of anything more manly that having one single shot from that Hawken between you and death before it gets down to tomahawk and green river knife.

How about the Colt sngle action revolver? Helped many frontier marshall's bring justice to the west, as did the Winchester lever action rifle.

The whole article sounds like some Y-tube teenager trying to sound like some kind of expert instead of an idiot.
 
Simo Hayha used a Finnish variant, M/28, of the Soviet Mosin-Nagant rifle.

Häyhä was credited with 505 confirmed kills of Soviet soldiers, and 542 if including the unconfirmed deaths. The unofficial Finnish front line figure from the battlefield of Kollaa places the number of Häyhä's sniper kills over 800. A daily account of the kills at Kollaa was conducted for the Finnish snipers. Besides his sniper kills, Häyhä was also credited with over two hundred kills with a Suomi KP/-31 submachine gun, thus bringing his credited kills to at least 705. Remarkably, all of Häyhä's kills were accomplished in fewer than 100 days and with iron sights.

Not a big fan of mass produced surplus military rifles; especially when they get passed off as the greatest thing ever built, but this man did unbelievable things with his issue rifle.
 
BAR: because a real man can handle a 20+ pound rifle.
Howdah: because if you can only have 2 shots in a handgun, they might as well be .50 cal + and be able to dispatch a charging tiger.
1911 in 45ACP: because JMB would rise from the dead and kick me in the junk if I didn't add this.
SW Model 29: Because Dirty Harry didn't pack a SW 500.
Colt SAA: Because John Wayne and the Magnificent Seven (That's right YUL BRYNNER, James Coburn, Charles Bronson et al), Plus Clint, Shane--like if I really need to explain this you're probably carrying a .32 in a European shoulder bag.
1895 Winchester in .405 with a steel plate shotgun butt. Because Teddy Roosvelt could get shot and still give a speech and recoil is no issue to a real man.
Ma Deuce: Because if your name is Roadblock, you need to stop cars and trucks. And come on, it's MA, and even manly men love their MA.
Moisin Nagant: Because cocking that SOB will give you the arms of a Russian Social Realist Poster Boy. If you can handle the carbine model, you're even manlier. You prolly shave with a bayonet and have never owned deodorant.
Atchisson Full Auto 12 ga. Because the only thing better than a 12 ga. is making it drum fed and the XM 19 from Dogs of War is pretty scarce.
Colt Fitz Special in 45 ACP: Because real men don't need triggerguards, hammer spurs, sights, and occasionally need a back-up gun that he can still beat you to death with when he's out of bullets.


And no woman on earth will ever care about this list ;)
 
Let's see, he's got a AR-15 but not a M14? Yeah, great list :rolleyes: As for all the snarky comments, just another example of some doofus on the internet trying to be "macho" or "kewl" or "extreme".
 
Kinda felt that article was a lighthearted article written for fun especially with all the viking references.
 
Funny stuff -

I prefer the tao of a singleshot iron sighted

Bolt action .22, myself!

Totally agree.
 
absolutly need the m1 garand, maybee an m14

It would be hard for me to limit the list to 10, Garand and the m14 or m1A needed to be there for sure. A SA Colt, 1873 Winchester, a heavy barrel Hawken, all of these were toted by "real men":confused:
