Ted Nugent - Still Packing Stadiums at 59

That rifle on the bottom is similar to what I want to buy next. I want it in .308 with a nice scope for long range deer and coyote hunting.

Hey cjhsa
He played here where I live last Saturday night. I didn't go, but was told the concert was sold out.

For all of you afraid of Evil Black Rifles, please point out what it is about this gun that scares you.

He's sold out just about every venue he's played. He was a huge hit on his European leg of the tour.

The very top gun on that display, I tried shooting one that looked like that. Uh, I didn't even get close to hitting a target Laughing

I'd prefer my scoped Ruger #2, a rifle stocked Thompson Center fire, or (my dream rifle) a Sharps falling block for long distance varmit hunting (there's not going to be much left of a coyote when nailed by a 45-70). I'll agree that 308 is a good long distance round, but my #2 is a 30-06 which I can make effective to 400 meters. For deer I prefer to get a little closer and use a iron sighted muzzle loader (50 cal). The smoke, the fire and the smell of muzzelloading I find pleasurable and an important part of the hunt, to me, is the stalk.

The way I figger, the first shot is the most effective. The second shot is only necessary if you aren't certain of the first. So if I got only one shot I'll take more time to make it certain. I guess its a zen thing.

In known Griz country I carry a 44 mag revolver when fishing.

My mom lives on a large isolated plot of land about a half mile above an outdoor venue that is a natural bowl, So you can sit in her side yard and hear concerts like you are in the the center rear of the venue without the crowd, the overpriced refreshments, and the parking woes.

Unfortunately, because of the deciduous curtain between the venue and the side yard you can't see the stage--oh well.

Last August there were two concerts that I listened to in her side yard--one was Ted Nugent and the other Willie Nelson. Without seeing the stage I had nothing to go on but musicality--so I thought Willie was a better show.

That's probably a .223, which is the civilian version of the standard NATO round. The bullet is quite tiny, but it's very fast and makes a lot of noise when you shoot it. Accurate as hell out to about 300 yards. I'm surprised you missed - someone should have given you a few pointers on the way those iron sights work.

Raprap, I like Willy too. Watch for him and Nuge in the upcoming "Beer for my Horses" movie starring Toby Keith, of course.

Then that wasn't the gun I used. The one I used was a military machine type gun that had a kickback to it. The type where you just pull the trigger once and it automatically shoots bullets. It was way too powerful for me to shoot. The bullets actually went skyward Embarrassed

not to be a dick... but I checked his tour schedule... he's doing state fairs, casinos and medium size theaters..... not exactly selling out stadiums.... but he's still doing well for an 80's nostalgia act... and I mean that not in a shitty way.

Yeah, it was at the casino in the area. Quite a big casino and they have been bringing in good bands. That is the reason I didn't go to the concert. I have been to 1 concert by myself at that casino and they get out of hand. You know guys combined with alcohol....

Oh, the gun I shot was an M-16. I guess I wouldn't make a very good soldier.

Hard to say. If it was current military, it would only shoot in three round bursts of 5.56mm (.223), and it shouldn't be hard to handle. Those gas operated autos don't kick at all until you get up into higher (hunting) calibers.

I know it was an automatic M-16 and it was heavy.
