I bet the flintlock boys, i.e. Davy Crocket had to put up with similar comments from the match lock musket boys.
"Why use a peice of flint to fire, when a slow burning leather match does the same job?" (but less efficiently and in an outdated way).
Richie, like the others, I have a semi that fires as accurate as many bolt actions do. Why shouldn't I use it for hunting? Its making use of 1950's technology, when my bolt action is making use of 1890's technology. Technology evolves and so does its applications, otherwise we would still be using matchlock muskets.
