I don't know its name... I only know the sound it makes when it takes a man's life.

Used to name my rifles in the Army. Now, they have names too. CZ and Ruger.

Truth is like the finest dagger ever made;
The steel cannot be dulled, chipped or broken.
Its thrust is deep and causes agonizing pain.
Those struck with the dagger of truth
must come to terms with the wicked lies
within their heart and soul.
No matter where you run or hide, nor how deep you dig your foxhole...the big green weenie WILL find you.

They sure do. My DPMS LR-308 is named "Baggy" which is short for Bagheera. Bagheera was the black panther in "The Jungle Book"...DPMS/Panther. Cheesy, I know.
My Savage 10 FP bolt action rifle is name Shere Khan...I'm sure you can guess why if you're familiar with "The Jungle Book". That rifle is downright deadly.
Kaa is the name I've given to my Kimber stainless pistol. It has a snakeskin backstrap type pattern and the grips are carbon fiber which kinda match the snakeskin backstrap. Kaa was the python in "The Jungle Book". Wish I had a Colt Python to give that name to. Sensing a pattern yet?
Still working on naming the rest.

my ar15 is named spooky. its because usually when i show a pic to someone that isn't informed about firearms, their reaction is woah aren't those illegal, or thats one of those evil banned "assault rifles". then they look at me like im some crazy gun nut.

"Lullabye", because it's the last thing a badguy hears before it's LIGHTS OUT, SUCKA!
Just kidding. I have a knack for being cheesy.
