My brother has dad's old trapdoor Springfield. He wants a guid gun also since the Springfield would not survive +P ammo.
It was funny...when I was watching the Minas Tirth battle scenes in the movie, I kept thinking "If they just had a hundred guys with M1-A1s, and a million rounds of ammo, this would be WAY different."
Or, better yet, a handful of Browning .30-caliber machine guns, and the aforementioned million rounds of ammo.
