A place for enthusiasts of sticks of all shapes and sizes. We all love a good stick! Is it a walking stick? Light Saber? Gun? Looks brown and sticky? You decide!

Feel free to post sticks to rate, sticks that look like things, memes about sticks, long winded rants about the superiority of birch sticks over oak, anything stick related! Natural sticks are preferred, but modification and ornamentation is also fine.

Ohhh, someone is more into stick guns than stick swords!

To be honest, this doesn't really do it for me? The beauty of the good sticks is in using them, which you can't really do while they're stuck on the wall :(

But like, imagine walking into that room with your friend, and saying in a dramatic voice, "Choose!... but choose wisely." And then you both go outside with your sticks and you're like pewpew pew

While I agree, how would you use such sticks? And what about when you're done using them? Couldn't your store them on, let's say, a wall?

Play fighting, I guess? It's been a while since I had a good stick in hand now that I think about it

I guess, it just feels like they're show pieces when presented like this. My first thought was to either just stick them (haha) in a pile on the floor, or to put them in like those cylindrical umbrella holders like a huge sheath!

They look like dowsing rod sticks, so maybe he uses them to find water?

I hope not, ‘cause that is complete hogwash. Would be a terrible waste of a good stick.

That's a Colt 1911, pre-1924. One way to tell is the lack of the scallop to the sides of the trigger. Also, top of the grip safety doesn't curve down much and the back of the grip is straight where post-1924 models had a bump on the mainspring cap.

Looks like Agent 47 storage shed

I didn't realize this was a physical wall instead of a composite image! Awesome!

RARE stick collection? Aren't all sticks one of a kind?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

But his collection is rare. He doesn't have a pleb common stick collection.

[–] peteypete420 3 points 3 months ago

Sure, but any collection of sticks is a rare collection.

The Brown Bess (top center) is a most impressive specimen.
