1984 Terminator: The original T-800 didn't dick around. He'd reach down your throat, and rip your fucking heart out. If you were lucky, this machine would deem your death to not be a mission priority and tell you to go fuck yourself (asshole).

Preferred weapons: The .45 Longslide (with laser sighting), Franchi SPAS-12, Armalite AR-18. An Uzi 9 millimeter.

Favored execution method: Traumatic asphyxiation

T2 Terminator: The protector. Killing wasn't a mission parameter for the second T-800, but it did successfully play defense against a mighty T-1000.

Preferred weapons: Winchester 1887, M79 grenade launcher. GE M134 Minigun.

Favored execution method: Umm, people hurt, they have feelings (it's important).

------------------------------

The rules: Both Terminators are transported to the present day, undamaged. Both have their chips set to read and write mode, being fully able to learn. They are equidistant away from nearby gun shops. The winner is the T-800 that terminates the other beyond any reboot, alternate power revival, or self-repair.

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
They'd just stand there looking at each other confused, unable to self terminate.

T2 terminator would win because it would have John & Sarah Connor at his side.

Without them, probably a tie. Same model and whatnot.

Actually it's preferred weapon was a phased plasma rifle in the 40 watt range but Californian law curtailed his freedom.

The original was killed by puny humans. The second took its own life after defeating a more advanced model. You tell me.

It's not a 1:1 comparison. The original T-800 had to kill its intended target to win, it had to play offense, the second T-800 had only to not lose, it got to play defense. Surely any statistical analysis performed by both T-800's would give a much higher chance of success to the one playing defense as opposed to playing offense, if you controlled for all other variables.

Can they pull each others CPUs or power supplies out? Also, why didn't the T-1000 do this? All he did was just shove the T-800 around.

They'll look at each other and correctly come to the conclusion that this is a really boring matchup and sigh. Then the Kool Aid guy will come smashing through the wall and spill his sugary content all over them, making them all sticky and slow.

America wins.

Stalemate. The T-800 from Judgement Day is essentially the T-800 from Terminator, ergo it is simply him looking at himself. As the T-800's objective does not include self-termination, it is unable to shoot the other T-800 model. They wouldn't fight, they'd simply head to the nearest junk yard and share a pint of oil.
