"combat" on the slide?

This may have already been discussed before but I couldn't figure out how to search for it.
Anyhow, does anybody think having "Combat" as in "Combat Carry", "Custom Combat", etc. as part of your gun name not look good if you were involved in a shooting or am I being paranoid?
 
I think you may have a point. I hate to take a position that sounds PC, but you may have a point. Then again, maybe it's much ado about nuthin'.

When we have to worry about what others might think, instead of doing what we should, that is a real pain.

I guess names like Combat, etc., satisfy the GI Joe in us all. I know I have a Colt Combat Commander, why does it need that name? Marketeers! LOL :D

No, the printing on the gun will have no bearing on your self defense case, not even if it said: "Hip-hop goblin killer" as long as the shooting was legal and not questionable in any way. If the shooting was questionable, they may bring up extraneous things to try to cast doubt on you, but in the end, it is the circumstances of the shooting that make or break you, not such extraneous things as what model gun or what kind of ammo.
 
R!ck, that sounds neat! Where can I get a Hip Hop Goblin Killer? LOL

You think THAT sounds neat, for a matching knife get the "nine inch double barbed Rambotron Ninja Deathmonger 2000 Knife" (legendary on rec.knives).
