What in the boomer fudd fuck is this bullshit as list? There better be a write in option.
>>65548354What guns were even developed or built in Idaho? Maybe a potato gun, that'd at least be cute and unique
>>65548354Afraid of REAL guns sonny instead of your plastic poodle shooters?
>>655483541873 obviously
>>65548354Stupid list. NEMO Arms and Seekins Precision are both located in Idaho.
>>65548354Garand dick
>>65548354To steelman: An "official" state gun should be something with historical and cultural value. Pretty much all of those guns are classic Americana firearms. I also wouldn't be surprised if Idaho has a lot of people that run old firearms.
>>65548861>I also wouldn't be surprised if Idaho has a lot of people that run old firearms.Eh. Western states in general and the mountain states in particular have been leaning more towards "paramilitary" than "cowboy LARPing" for a few decades now, especially for hunting.
Fake gay and retarded modern slop that can be made anywhere. You're silly to complain about being given GOOD options
>>65548807>wahhhh why can't my state gun be some faggy fucking AR???
>>65548987>300 Win Mag and .458 Win Mag are faggy>Seekins is better known for boltiesThank you for confirming you are a physically and mentally weak underage bitch.
>>65548354out of that list 1873 sounds like the best one for Idaho.
>>65549003I don't care if it's chambered in .577 Tyrannosaur, an AR is fucking gay as a state gun. All the same tacticool larp slop
>>65549021As opposed to cliche western cowboy arms, none of which has an actual connection to the state besides historical usage, which is true for every other state.Eat shit, normalfag
>>65549028>wants an AR as his state gun>calls others normalfagRich
>>65548354Idaho needs a frontier lever gun for its state gun because of its history with frontier weaponry, anything other than that is retarded to have it's why only the first two options are the only good ones
>>655483541873 is the most SOVLFUL choice
>>65548354The list could be a lot worse, but it’s kind of gay in my opinion that they included the 1911 (already neighboring Utah’s state gun) and the Remington 700 (just a bland retarded choice with zero character and very limited historical significance). My biggest gripe about the list is that Idaho has so much Elmer Keith history and they didn’t think to include anything in homage to his work and influence here. I’m not even a revolver guy, but come on. Some of those guns were used in the indian wars here, at least.
>>65549214Yeah, not even a triple lock smith or one of Keith's experimental 357s or 44s. I'd say that has way more cultural impact than a run of the mill hunting rifle or some lever action. In fact I think he used modified SAAs when experimenting so they could use the SAA
>>65549028>which is true for every other state.No?It's basically only true for the western states. Cowboy LARP is genuinely part of their culture because they have an actual frontier history to LARP.
>>65548354TN has best firearm.
>>65548987>>65549021>>65549028>>65549036Gentlemen! Enough! Randy Weaver carried a Ruger Mini-14. It meets the wood furniture boomer aesthetic, is more a “modernized”’design than the shit listed, and has state history. This is the one true answer.
>>65549538If you believe the government a box cutter can do that.
>>65548354whatever it is needs to shoot CCI Mini-Mags.
>>65549379You think people on the East Coast, in the Midwest and in the South didn't also use the 1873 and SAA when it was popular?
>>65548354First of all, you can't take outlr state gun, you derivative fagots. Second of all FPBP.
>>65550109>people on the East CoastBuck of slack jawed, dandified dudes.
>>65549573This.
It should be a S&W Model 29 for Elmer Keith. Simple as
>>65548354The Colt SAA has been the state firearm of Arizona since 2011, you're all slow poke forest queers.
>>65549379Ohio was once the frontier and 'the west'. When and where is your cutoff?
>>65550109Dixoids were still using muzzleloaders until the 1894 came out
>>65548354>>65548779SAA without a doubt. 1911 is already Utah's gun.
>>65551105You’re describing the “frontier” era where everything west of the Appalachians was being discovered the “Wild West” would generally be considered the mid-late 1800s settlement boom. Personally I’d argue the era ended with the invention of the automobile and expansion of the railroads creating easier dispersement around the early 1900s. The frontiers man was replaced by the cowboy who was replaced by the gangster.
Idaho is the worst smelling state between Arizona and western Montana.
>>65555408that's only Lewiston. it's where the papermill is.the rest smells like pine trees and sagebrush.
