So far I think Michael458 has come up with the ultimate hillbilly rifle. Which has me thinkin; maybe, just maybe one of you may actually have a better one that we havn't seen yet. Now, the way I see it, a proper Hillbilly rifle needs to be versital, hard hitting, rust resistant, short, handy, and a camo paint job.
Now If I could get my .375 Ruger pics on here I may actually have a chance at the trophy. But, I can't, so how bout some down home, home grown Hillbilly rifle pics. . . . . ?

Lever carbine in 44 mag, 30-30 Win. or 45/70 is referred to locally as the "Redneck Assault Rifle."

I have some of those assault rifles you mention too! They work! But do they have a beer bottle opener attachment like my B&M series rifles?



Only in South Carolina is this offered!

some people's kids...

You see what you are missing out on!

Thats a good looking rifle michael. What are the specs?

Hey Carnold


That's the basics of the gun. Of course weight increases depending on the accessories added and the amount of duct tape required to hold said accessories in place. We are still in the manufacturing process with the add on accessories and will announce those specs as we have them! Now all you guys we welcome ideas concerning what exact accessories one might need while in the field, so if you have some special needs please let us know. The beer bottle opener is a very special added accessory of my own invention, thank you, yes I know how important this can be in the field! Have lost several teeth because of being short a beer bottle opener!

It will be a little while, but the first 458 B&M Super Short went in to be converted and it too is yet another fine "Hillbilly" model, only smaller! We look forward to getting that one back soon!

Michael

That rifle barrel is only 18" long. Who wood want an 18" barrel? Unless he plans on hunting
real close.

The short barrel is handy for getting your gun swung around so you can shoot out of either window of your F-150 and not spill your spit cup in the process.

I think the whole idea of the B&M calibers is for good ballistics in a short, light, handy rifle. Just as the .375 Ruger meets the ballistics (surpasses), of the H&H, with a short 20" barrel.
Come on now; keep up!

JudgeG: Do you know this from personal experience?

Yep, the Marlin 1895 BLG in 45/70 stainless/laminate with big-loop lever, long picatinny rail topside, and peep sights, is battle-ready right out of the box. 18.5" barrel.
Shazam and gollllllllee!

You need to wedge an empty can of Folger's in between the front seats behind the shift lever.

A good man can hold the wheel with one hand, and reach around and grab his carbine off the rear window rack with the other hand while spitting into the can in the same motion, rest the fore arm of the carbine on the steering wheel and jack a round into the chamber, and get off a round or two at 35 mph, in about six seconds.

Get with it, man.

AMEN!

JudgeG

Being from the great state of GA I would expect nothing less! I think the only thing you got wrong is it's not an F-150, here in SC we drive F-250s and F-350s!


jro45

I expect nothing more for someone from Delaware! You just would not understand!

RIP
I have a few of those levers that would meet your specs too!

Mrlexma

You got it right, what's the problem with your neighbor in Delaware?

Michael

Heh Michael, is there any way I can get you to put the pic of my Hillbilly Ruger on here that I sent you. I can't seem to do it with my amazing computer skills. Maybe that will help get the ball rollin. . . . . .

All righteeeee…Coming to an area near you….!

This is written up for the flatlanders as the good old boys already know how its done.

The Ultimate Hillbilly Big Bore Shoot:
Rifles, handguns, hand cannons, shotguns, and double rifles allowed as long as they’re big. Girlee guns are not allowed.

Animals: We’ll be using animal decoys identical to the local DNR so that everyone can get ready for this falls hunting. We’ll have two deer, two cows, and two bigass pigs.

Vehicles: You’ll be shooting from the pickup you’re using for this fall’s hunt as long as it’s not still in the DNR impound lot.

Contest: You’ll be hauling ass down Frog Creek road towards the creek with your gun in the rifle rack and you have to be going at least 35mph when you crest the ridge about 200 yards from the creek. You have to shoot the buck deer (that’s the one with the antlers one it) and the pig with the “X” painted on it.

Scoring: You only get a point if you shot inside the circle painted on the decoy.

Extra Points: You’ll get extra points if you shoot both deer and both pigs.

Lose Points: You get points deducted for:
1) One point is deducted if you only shoot one pig and doesn’t have the “X” painted on it.
2) One point is deducted if you only shoot one deer and it’s not the buck.
3) One point is deducted for each cow you shoot. And,
4) One point is deducted for each window you shoot out.

Timing: You will be timed from the crest of the ridge to the creek.

Winner: The fastest time from the crest of the ridge to the creek with the most decoys shot inside the painted circles with the fewest lost points is the winner.

Heads Up: George says he’s still looking for the idiot (I can’t print what he truly called this individual) shot his cow last fall so you best not show that you’re a good cow shooter or you might be in for some whipass before the barbeque is over!

Let’s all have some fun!!! See you next Saturday.

And yes, my post is purely in jest!

I like it, and THAT's what I'm talkin bout!
Was it really all THAT hard. . . . . ?

If you see me in Dallas this weekend, make sure to ask me about the fireman/client who got his thumb shot off in a pick up by his friend's hillbilly deer rifle.

I'd post it here, but sex, transvestites, aggravated assualt and kidnapping are involved and it's a little racy.

Here is DWrights Hillbilly gun Entry!


It's got a dose of Hillbilly, but not sure it beats mine!

I can tell you someone who has some Hillbilly guns, RIP, where are you?

Michael

The old F-150 mirrors that folded in made for great gun rests. You should turn the engine off first to not ruin your shot. Most important! If you are using a contender (ok it's a girly gun) make sure the barrel is out the window. Damn those things are loud inside of a truck cab.

OK...what does the B stand for and what does the M for???

Crap, thank's Michael; but now that I see it I'm gunna have to vote for yours!
Besides, who's gunna keep score?
And exactly what will the voting system be rated on?

Whatever it is, so far Michaels ahead.
I know 458win has, or at least 'had' a top contender for the title.

The B stands for my best and longest friend that sparked the original idea, Bill Bruton and the M is for me, Michael McCourry!

OK it was getting a little dark, the cow was black, looked just like a buffalo to me, I had to use a Sure Fire and could not get my 2 million candlepower light out in time, the diesel engine was rumbling, moving the truck a little, and my eyes are not as good as they used to be! Still I thought for sure it was a buffalo! George shoulda known better than to have one of those cows that close to the dirt road!

Michael

Sorry, I will not be in the running for this competition.
I would have to hacksaw a barrel to be competitive with a bolt action of custom "Hillbilly" originality.
The .416 Ruger Alaskan stainless 20" with rubberized Hogue stock is close, but no cigar.
Besides, I don't use a spit cup in an F-150.
I spit out the window of a Ford Ranger.
She hauls bison carcasses from Nebraska to Kentucky just fine.
I'm still looking for the perfect Mudflap Girl buttstock "inlay."

Marlin 1894, lever, 10 rd. 44 magnum. Think of it as a really, really, big handgun with a shoulder stock and a long barrel -- what snugs in behind the seat of the truck.

Sevenxbjt,
Excellent. Every good hillbilly has at least a Mini-14 in .223.
The really forward thinking ones are even equipped with Mini-30's,
so as to be fluent in Russian, Chinese, and terrorist language of diplomacy.
Might come in handy someday.

As for spittin':

Josey Wales was a sissy character?
I minimize the spittin', try to sneak it out the window when nobody is lookin'.
Still, occasional practice with aimed "spitfire" can come in handy.
You do not want to get too rusty.
An aimed stream to the forehead of a stray dog growlin' at you can prevent the need for further action on your part,
such as a punch on the nose of said curr.
A good aimed shot can also have great dramatic effect too, as lead-in to that great line:

"Buzzards gotta eat, same as worms."

DRG says: "Kiss my liberal grits!"

OK guys, this is getting just a little out of hand. A proper Hillbilly rifle is no laughing matter. No sir, it is a serious tool for serious work!
In reality, lot's of thought must go into one's Hillbilly rifle to insure all the item's needed for any situation are concidered.
Every detail carefully thought out.
Points are made on these details. From the length of the barrel; Those cut by hand with a hacksaw recieve extra point's; to any added essentials, as Michael has displayed with his beverage entry tool assy.
I think it's important to point out that it's the rifle itself; not the action of the shooter that is being rated here.
The more creative, the better.
I've almost got my dangerous game bludgening device perfected, which should cement my position as the Hillbilly rifle champ. It will consist of a heavy iron insert in the stock, that will be used for beating the beast to death, by grabbing the barrel and using the rifle as a sledge hammer, in the event that I forgot to bring any ammo!


And all this talk about spitting tobacco. . . . . . You people are sick!
