So what is a Fudd, anyway? Is it just some oldfag who believes stupid things? I see that term thrown around here a lot.

In a sense yes
Though they also encompass the kind of people who do stupid shit to guns as well, like saw the stock off of an M1 Garand.
someone who likes AR15's and pushes Glocks down everyone's throats.

A fudd is someone who believes that a firearms only purpose if so hunting and therefore a wood and steel bolt action or shotgun is all one needs. They hate any modern semi-automatic firearm and would be perfectly okay if any gun that wasn't their deer rifle was banned.
The worst part about a fudd is the fact that they are basically anti-gun gun owners, and thus liberals will hold them up as the prime example of a "reasonable gun owner"
Keep in mind a fudd is not just someone who owns old fashion guns and only old fashion guns, you can like fudd guns and not be a fudd, a fudd has to be actively against anyone owning modern guns.

You're confusing fudd and bubba. Fudds worship old guns, bubbas butcher them in an attempt to make them into m4s
>>34006035
This

This sounds like my dad. Doesn't hate freedom generally, just other people's freedom.

This guy gets it.
You know that feeling you get when some autist at the range goes on about 300 Blackout being "THE" hottest shit and every other rifle caliber sucks? Or when someone raves about fully automatic drum fed 12-gauge shotguns, or insists that they need lasers and rails and flashlights on their Glock? You know, the feeling you get when someone thinks a good old S&W .357 is shit because it "lacks capacity" or that any gun that doesn't look like it was featured in the Alien movie franchise is antiquated? Or when someone has no appreciation for black powder firearms, historical engraving or the firearms from WW1 through Korea?
Those feelings you're getting are your own natural Fudd instincts at work. According to the guys who would label you a Fudd, you aren't allowed to appreciate anything that isn't sci-fi or "tactical." The anti-Fudd crowd are generally newbies, millenials, the guys who install nitrous and glass packs in their Hondas, and who rarely actually fire guns but like to forum surf until they can mod out a techy new firearm as an extension of their Airsoft habit.
The Fudd is the guy who likes revolvers and older rifles, or at least ones not heavily gadgeted out.
The people who constantly bitch about Fudds are generally obnoxious idiots with almost no real experience or training.
Now, that being said, a previous poster is absolutely correct that there are a class of these "Fudds" who are really dangerous too, because they act like no one "needs" anything more than a revolver, a deer rifle, and a double barreled shotgun, and they're happy to let the anti-gunners ban everything beyond that.
Fudds need to be brought up to speed on the real threat of the liberal anti-gunners and the coolness of more modern weaponry, and the folks who are constantly screaming about "Fudds" need to be more appreciative of older firearms, recognize gun ownership has rural roots, and that you don't need to be a geeked out "operator" to have credibility as a gun owner.

You sounds like a dumbass fudd
>>34005982
Holy fuck the amount of newfag in here is unforgivable.
Fudd: "I don't see a problem with banning high-capacity mags. If you need more than five rounds to kill a durr, you don't need a gun."
Also: "BE CAREFUL WHEN YOU'RE SHOOTING THAT NOW, SON. 22lr CAN GO FOR MILES AND MILES."
A fudd comes from the name Elmer Fudd, who you would know if you weren't fucking seventeen.

Fudds don't have any appreciation for black powder, engravings, or classic military guns. Fudds are the same people who used to rape Krags beyond belief and refuse to use anything black powder beyond those modern in line guns.
You are describing collector, whether actual or wannabe.
