I'd rather my own son see me die on my feet as a free man, than watch him go, broken, into slavery.

My only rifle is a 1938 Mosin Nagant 91/30, I use the iron sights, and surplus ammo. Is that old school enough?

I firmly believe that any man's finest hour, the greatest fulfillement of all that he holds dear, is that moment when he has worked his heart out in a good cause, and lies exhausted on the field of battle... Victorious.
Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.

Well, now and again, I drag out the Model 71 and put a few rounds of .348 Winchester downrange. Then go home and whimper softly......

JP,
1903 Springfield 03-A3. Love to shoot the Old Gal! It is in great condition. I only shoot her about 5-10 rounds a year. The Bolt Face still has 80% of the finish still on it. Something about the old guns. God I wish they could talk! I know you have some nice ones!

Do you mean 'old school guns' or 'old school shooters' as in old PEOPLE?

Old school shooters. You can use a new rifle w/ irons if you can find one!
I never thought of them as old guns, they are in there prime! Kinda like me. 
Old school shooters: Guys that use basic iron sight firearms, standard 3 position off hand positions, find a thrill in using 100 year old technology.
Find it works just fine!!! 303Tom, you suck! That is a great rifle.

That works. Maybe I can find a way to meet you in FLA for some pig hunting. I'll send some ammo down before hand.

I'd love to see a pic. The A3 is the bride, not the brides maid.
