Be honest you named all your firearms, share it with us.

[Sivl32 27]

I don't feel embarrassed to admit this cause I know some of you have done it as well, you gave each of your firearms a name and its time to share it... gun/name..

Taurus 1911 - Angie

Bersa .380 - Charlette

Springfield XDM45 5.25 - Melissa

JR Carbine (AR) - Thrall

 

your turn.

[Pizza Bob 1,488]

Hmmmmmm..........................no. I have enough trouble remembering my kids names.

[Maksim 1,504]

Um, never even crossed my mind to name my guns... I name my fish...

 

Sig, Kimber, etc... but I stopped after 3.

 

The only nickname I have for my gun is one... Block for my G37 =)

[Ray Ray 3,566]

.....waiting on echomirage

[jermz1987 243]

I call my two Springfield 1911s, The Browning Sisters.

[hd2000fxdl 422]

Don;t name my guns, but I do name some of my Bikes, all the bikes I had that were older than my 74 had names but now only my 83 Shovel does, my 08 Ultra is way too new and if you know anything about Harleys anything newer than Shovels don;t really have any soul like the old iron.

 

Now before our resident BMW guy jumps in, your old iron bikes are right there in a class of there own as well and you know they are also a part of the family just like old HD's, Trumpets, Indians, Vincents, Enfields, etc..

If I name them can I use them as tax write offs? If so I have my own town!!!

He calls it Atlantis since he lost all of them in a boating accident.

 

Oh - and you'd be part of the 43% that pay zero federal taxes - nice going Eric!

I never did it for real but kidding around Ive refered to any russian rifle as Ivan,my dogs are named after english gun makers so I think you need a sense of humor with anything gun related

[maideneddie 35]

Some of my guns have gotten very bad names when the act up like, you piece of sh*t when one jams, of you f-ing piece of.crap when it fails to eject, or you dirty whore when I have to clean it at the end of a shooting session. Names go no further than that, purely heat of the moment.

[Sivl32 27]

way to make me feel alone here, hahah

[Murphy4570 15]

Some people name their cars too. I never understood it.

 

I refer to inanimate objects by their name, I don't create a "pet name" for them.

[KpdPipes 388]

if it isnt alive, it only gets a name if it floats or flies.

[robot_hell 72]

I don't name my guns, in fact the only inanimate object I have ever named was one of my cars-- it was called Bessie.

[njJoniGuy 2,131]

My AR pistols are named "Thunder" and "Lightning"

[NicePants 58]

I only named a shotgun of mine. Sir Boomington. I'll be sure to name the next gun I get though.

[Soju 153]

Peace and Maker.

I'd no more name my firearms than I'd name a rake or a shovel. That said, if it were ginormous, annoying or really oddball in some fashion, it might get named something like Günther. You know who Günther is right? If you fly as much as I have, you ultimately end up sitting next to a German who lives out of a bag smaller than a 1911 case. His name is invariably Günther. He last took a shower several weeks ago when he left the motherland and you ran into him on the 3rd leg of a 22 hour flight to Asia. Now you've got 7 hours to enjoy his surly manner and bask in his ripeness. Günther is such an indelible memory that you recount these encounters on a gun forum some years later. Günther's name is reserved for that special piece of equipment that irritates the hell out of you.

[tommy3rd 132]

didn't this topic come up about a year ago? And no, I use whatever name was given to them by their creator. ;-)

What he said.

 

I call mine 226, 220 etc

[bulpup 98]

The only weapon I named was my M249, kinda. I called it the pig, on account of how f'in heavy and unweildy it was.

 

Then I met a guy that had been issued a M60. He thought the name was "cute" and rolled his eyes.

I know Günther.

 

As a group - a bunch of us named one of our friends guns Godzilla. The barrel on that shotgun was so long he was swatting clays out of the sky with the end of the barrel...

[montecristo345 4]

Vera.

[bry@n 195]

I am like Tommy and just call them by the model # they are. But I would call my shotgun my ****. Just cause it sounds good and that is what they called it in training day. lol

[tony357 386]
