Naming Weapons

The names, when applied are descriptive, not personal or attributive.

My Remington 700PSS is the Big Black Gun. :D
My ArmaLite M15A4 Carbine with the ELCAN is the Little Black Gun.
The .44 Mag. Mountain Gun is The Thumper. ;)

The rest have no names.

After watching "Private Ryan" again today, the Garand should be called "Freedom" in tribute to my father's generation, but will remain "the Garand" for its inventor.
