I built GunGuesser, basically GeoGuessr but for guns. More importantly, I made a dedicated Cursed Guns game mode for communities like this to enjoy.

the site is called: GunGuesser.com

Please let me know what cursed guns to add, the pool should be larger!

Found a rifle. Possibly WWII era

One of my coolest finds yet. I know next to nothing about rifles, but it doesn't take a historian to tell that this has been down there awhile. Some of my friends speculate it's American-made WWII era, but they admit it's hard to tell with so much deterioration. Any gun buffs out there wanna take a shot at identification? The rifle is 2 ft, 9 in long.

Bolt action VS AR-15

Hey Fellow Redditors!

I’m going to ask a semi- stupid question, but what really is the difference between AR-15 and bolt action rifles other than the semi-auto function?
Is there something specific? Is one better for defense and better for hunting?
I’m think of getting one or the other and am not sure which would be better to get.

Custom Backcountry Build

Hey everyone, I’m looking for some recommendations. I’m planning on either taking a factory rifle a building it up, or doing a completely custom build. My budget is about $2,500 for the rifle without an optic. This is for big game, so 300 win/WSM or 7mm are most likely. Preferred range is under 490 yards. I’m wanting it to be fairly light, under 8.25 lbs with an optic and as short as as relatively optimal for performance.

Side note: I’m considering buying a Weatherby 307 or Fierce Rogue to save myself some time. I also dabble in hand loading.

Any and all recommendations are welcome

Scout Rifle Choice

If you had the pick to build a scout rifle out of... which would you do? I already have the rail and 2 scout scopes.. I also have Ruger American Ranch Rifles in:

300blk 1st Gen,

300 blk 2nd Gen,

450 Bushmaster in 2nd Gen,

6.5 creedmore 2nd Gen.

I thought at first I wanted a 6.5, then I wanted a 450 Scout and now Im back to one of my 300blk...

In considering max point blank range I could get 200 yards roughly out of the 450, the 6.5 would do 310. And the .300 could be pretty useful with both sub and full velocity...

Lets hear your ideas.

Benelli Lupo .270 win

Hi everyone,

I am the owner of a brand new Beneli Lupo am looking for some real-world advice regarding the best suppressor for my Benelli Lupo B.E.S.T., chambered in .270 Win.

My absolute priority is maximum sound reduction (decibel suppression). I plan to use this rifle for hunting trips abroad where suppressors are allowed, and I don't mind the extra weight or length if it means achieving the quietest possible shot.

Thank you!
