I feel this thread has been greatly beneficial to the forum community. It has allowed the elders amongst us to vent a little about the changing cultures (was going to say "advancing" culture but we know thats not true).
John even came up with a new term! (with my assistance)
Tahr hit on a whole new culture (those blind shooters dont use "bushpigs" btw).
I was just advocating for the use of the term "bushpig" for the plastic/carbon stock, scoped, suppressed, shortened rifle that seems to be very kiwi piece of equipment now. When someone says "carbine" i immediately think of an old .303 jungle carbine, open sights and definitely no suppressor. These old rifles definitely do not come under the "bushpig" title. So you old fellas can definitely keep using "carbine" for all your old rifles.
