    I still like the original Doom video game's giant weapon known simply as the BFG.

    We won't discuss the micheal bay abomination; but from growing up with the original Transformers, the lead villian was named Megatron, he changed into a large scoped handgun that destroyed anything he hit. So is and does my smith 460 XVR
    On certain occasions, you just need to have a gun. When being attacked by a 1000 pound grizzly bear you don't pepper spray him like he was a mugger in central park. - James Norton

    There have been some recently acquired items and names recently.
    My wife's 41 mag blackhawk= Mexican Commerce
    My AOW short barreled Benelli= Hate
    My full auto suppressed Colt 16= Discontent
    Hate and discontent have been know to "spread" to my enemy targets.
    I came into this world kicking, screaming, and covered in someone elses blood. I plan to go out the same way.

    Got a Greek return 03a3 I call Black Nasty, Stock is VERY dark walnut and upon recieving it, it was covered head to toe in dirt and cosmoline. However after cleaning it (or so I thought) It was a good shooter. Even took it to Perry last year to shoot in the Springfiled match, However sitting it on the firing line and shooting it during Offhand it started leaching cosmo again, making the gun hard to hold onto and my off hand score suffered.

    Built a "cosmoline oven" and have since cleaned it again,

    I have a Winchester 94 in 444 Marlin I searched a long time for, trying to find one without porting. My shoulder wishes I'd settled for a ported model, it weighs about the same as 94 in 30-30 despite the heavier reciever (bigger hole).
    I named it Winnie the BOOM.

    I have a Winchester/USRAC '94 in .307 Winchester. The first year I hunted with the gun it dropped two deer. The 1st one fell over like somebody turned off a switch. The second was shot in the chest while walking towards my blind at about 15 feet. On impact it stood him up and off all four; causing him to land on his rump, then fall over on his side with only a slight kick. My Dad commented "Boy, that little gun really knocks the snot outta them." Ever since I call that carbine "Snotknocker."

    My '94 Black Shadow .444 is called "Black Betty."

    I have a beautiful M91 Argentine rifle that shoots way better than I could ever hope to. Her name is "Evita."

    My two favorite Mosin Nagants are a 91/59 carbine and a 1927 Ishevesk rifle. I call them "Boris" & "Natasha."

    For years I resisted naming guns because I thought it was silly. I finally got over it thanks to Black Friday.

    Black Friday is my Savage 10 Predator Hunter in 22-250. I bought her on... Black Friday. Since then, she has proven to be a holy terror on woodchucks, rabbits, squirrels, and a couple coyotes.

    After she broke the ice, I have acquired names for:

    Swiss Miss - my Swiss K31
    Miss Kim - Egyptian Hakim
    Kill Switch - CZ 527 in 204 Ruger - kills stuff quicker than anything I've ever seen. No flopping, just DRT!
    Cupcake - Savage 870 - licensed copy of a Browning A5, and it's a cupcake to shoot!

    Still got some more that are looking for names, I'm sure I'll add appropriate ones as they develop.

    I call my .50 Pedersoli flintlock "Ole Black Magic" but I sometimes I refer to it as "Smokey Joe"; my M1 Garand is called "Betsy"; my AK-47 is called my "AMROM" because it is made in America with Romanian parts; my wife often refers to my 1911 .45 as my "bang, bang"; my .22 rifle is known as "Pea Shooter"; I call my .45 Colt clone "Thunderation" and my Winchester carbine as "Handy Man".

    boomstick! The twelve-gauge double-barreled Remington. S-Mart's top of the line. You can find this in the sporting goods department. That's right, this sweet baby was made in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Retails for about a hundred and nine, ninety five. It's got a walnut stock, cobalt blue steel, and a hair trigger. That's right. Shop smart. Shop S-Mart.
