Gun Nuts Radio: Top 5 Rifles

Check out last night's Gun Nuts Radio for our Top 5 Rifle lists, both mine and Breda's. We took a different approach to the list, hers being rifles that she had experience, and mine being rifles (and one musket) that I felt had significantly influenced both the shooting community and/or history. We also briefly touched on the whole Open Carry drama, and in that also found a fitting way to memorialize our friend, Meleanie Hain. Click here to download last night's great episode! You can also get the show in a portable .mp3 format!

And because I know you're going to ask, here's my personal top five list of the greatest rifles, the most significant rifles:

1. The M1 Garand


2. The Ruger 10/22


3. The AR-15 family


4. The '98 Mauser family


5. The Brown Bess Musket

Of course, if you want to hear my rationale behind each pick, you'll need to download last night's show and give it a listen! Also included in last night's show is the reasoning as to why the Kalashnikov series of rifles are not included on that list. But you have to listen to the show to find out, so click the links and head over!

The show is also available on iTunes, by going to the iTunes store and searching for Gun Nuts Radio or by following these instructions to subscribe to our RSS feed.

Next week's Gun Nuts is going to be all about costumed shooting - that's right, Cowboy Action shooting and the Zoot Shooters will be our topic of discussion! Don't miss out next week at 9pm Eastern at www.blogtalkradio.com/gunnuts!
