Name my gun

[LSU12ga]

Well, since i can't give my 870 a bris, that would make the barrel to short, i decided i would name it.

So i need all of your help to find an appropriate name for my all black, remington 870 supermagnum. I was going to call it honest abe, becuase of the ghettiesberg address, 4 score and 7....which i then realized was 807. damn, oh well.

So if you have any ideas, feel free to share them.

for inspiration, this is it, sans the magazine extention.

I've named my guns so far after Napoleon's Marshals...the good ones, anyway. When I run out of those, I'm moving on to other famous generals.

MY 870 Wingmaster ended up as Davout

And a single-shot .410 who is Augereau

I personally think there is much potential with the whole Gettysburg idea, but your own personal creativity should run wild here ;)

[MichaelScott]

You named your guns after French people??? :barf:

[Dirty_Harry]

I am leanin towards slick myself........

[270Win]

Back when the French were cool ;)

[MEDDAC19]

[LSU12ga]

My ones called Vera. After the great scene in firefly

Turns and sees Jayne standing with meanest looking future shotgun imaginable. He cocks it, stonefaced.

JAYNE Do I have your attention?

MAL We're kind of going to extremes here,
ain't we?

JAYNE There's times I think you don't take me seriously. And I think that
oughta change.

MAL Do you think it's likely to?

JAYNE You got something you don't deserve.

MAL And it's brought me a galaxy a'fun I'm here to tell you.

JAYNE Six men came to kill me one time, and the best of them carried this. It's a Callahan fullbore autolock, customized trigger and double cartridge thourough-gage.

He holds it out to Mal.

JAYNE (cont'd) It's my very favorite gun.

MAL The explosive diarrhea of an elephant, are you offering me a trade?

JAYNE A trade? Hell, it's theft! This is the best gun made by man, and its got
extreme sentimental value! It's miles more worthy'n what you got.

MAL "What I got" - she has a name.

JAYNE So does this! I call it Vera.

..How bout Mister Remington?

Failing that, what about naming it after American folk heroes? You could call it Davey.

[BobGnKY]

how about "Ten X Abe". four score and 7 is 87. 87 x 10 is 870.

You could also refer to it as your "blackjack" in reference to the old police thumpers.

Or, JSS ... for "Judgement, Swift and Sure" ...

If irreverence is okay with you, you could refer to it as "psalm 23" as in "...I will fear no evil, for thou art with me"

[LSU12ga]

bob....i like the 10x abe idea.... Lincolon X

[gunslinger555]

the hallway howitzer but i like "psalm 23" better

[308Enfield]

How about the Boxer Rebellion in honor of having such a dangerous item that the :barf: "esteemed senator from Kalifornia" :barf: would like to take away from you?

[BobGnKY]

Well, even though it was not my intent, as I don't usually name my firearms, (except for my Python, which is My Baby), I think I have just named two of my shotguns.

Thanks, LSU for starting the thread.

My Model 1897 Riot gun will henceforth forever be known as "Psalm 23", and My 870 Wingmaster shall be forever known as "Lincoln X"


:D thanks folks !

I was going to say "Betty," but it looks like you have already decided.

[TexiCali Slim]

I think you should name it "I wish I bought a Winchester" but you've probobly allready thought of that one:p J/K Nice gun!

[LSU12ga]

nothing is final...i also like the idea of girls names. I wanted somthing that suggested a big woman, like bertha, but with out being too cliche'

[TexiCali Slim]

Why don't you name it Star Jones?

ezikiel (you know that part from pulp fiction where jackson quotes "I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you") i might use that one on my 338:D

angelina because it has a nice rack!
