    I dont think there is any firearms snobbery in NZ - (maybe a little from Sako owners) to be honest we just dont have the really high grade rifles and shotguns here that are seen overseas to create any serious class type division.

    I think even Tikka owners can look down on Remington 700 or Howa 1500 rifles....I don't think you need 'high-grade' rifles for snobbery to come out.
    A good job and a good wife has been the ruin of many a good hunter.

    Just as well there is a dirty old BLR or two that resides in your camp to keep the tone real.

    Stock T3's have no snob value or class.
