Thread: Educate me on bushpigs

I think they're ugly.

And while they may be practical and suit the tastes of many; from my somewhat traditionalist perspective, they are a bit of everything and not much of anything.

They're often championed as a 'solution', when there have always been rifles available which were designed from the ground-up with portability in mind.

Why chop up a general purpose rifle which wasn't designed with the express purpose of manoeverability, when there are rifles out there such as lever actions which were specifically designed for that purpose? They're also lighter, trimmer, and you do not have to go to the expense of modifying them and compromising their integrity from a design standpoint.

It may be a kiwi thing - this incessant urge to tinker and modify things. It should be reffered to as the Frankenstine Complex. ;P

But all of this is just my opinion, and I'm glad that people are getting the most out of their bushgrunters.
