I don't disagree with you on a practical level, but...

given this group is pretty disposed to liking old school things, I imagine no one will make fun of me that I still like and will use a scout rifle, if for no other reason than nostalgia and participating in an old way to get the job done. Much like I still carry and use a .44 Special or .38/44 and think of the time when Keith did the same and it was cutting edge. Or that Skeeter liked it, just because. :)

Or a Winchester 94 in .30-30, etc., ad nauseum.
