How many of us "name" their air rifles?

Centercut · Oct 18, 2022

OK, I'll admit it. I'm somewhat of a geek, and all my guns are named... How about you? I'll go first:

.30 FX Bobcat Mk2 - Reaper
.30 Daystate Delta Wolf - White Fang
.25 FX Impact slugger - Death Dealer (it really likes schwacking ground squirrels long range)
.25 Daystate Red Wolf HP - Bullseye
.22 Daystate Red Wolf HP - Bleu
.22 Cricket mini Carbine - Gonzo
.22 Edgun R3 Long - Eddie (yeah, I know, not very original)

.177 Daystate Pulsar standard - Alpha Wolf (named WAY before DS came out with the Alpha Wolf platform)
.177 FX Dreamline Classic - LeStat
.257 AirForce Texan - Reacher

I have 21 PCP air rifles and the only one with a name is my RAW 100x LRT with the offset moderator- Big Nose Kate.

Now now Mr. Centercut..... somewhat of a geek?! I beg to differ on the word somewhat

I never had a name for my rifles until Robert (AOA) came up and made fun of my crown which was in a Saber Tactical stock...He said it looked like a skeleton so I named it Skeletor....Now the 30 cal Delta Wolf is named Lupo Nero (Italian for black wolf)

Yes the wife started naming her's also now.....

Stepdaughter named my Wolverine R - "Pretty". I certainly don't disagree, so it's sticking.

Technically, she first said "Pretty Pretty Pellet Gun", but we agreed to abbreviate

If I did have a name

for my airgun (only have one currently)...

Ms. Peaceful Butterfly! Seems appropriate for the Bushbuck 45, doesn't it?

My only gun with a name is a 25 cal RAW hm1000x that has a black laminate stock.
Her name is Black Betty (bam a lam).

How about "Buck"? From the Call of the Wild by Jack London.

My MK1 Lefty TX that I sold to Lewis was/is a really special airgun, so she deserved a special name - Rocinante'

5Power · Oct 18, 2022

Never played this game, but Mike is infectious and we are on a role now!
.25 Daystate Red Wolf - Buzz (Because I told Mike it was gonna be light years ahead of his

)
.177 Daystate Huntsman - Artemis (The goddess of the hunt)
.22 BRK Ghost (not in my hands yet, but prenamed) Boo!
Still have my FX Streamline that is up for sale so maybe I will name it if it doesn’t go.

I never have named a gun. But this brings back good memories, a very great old guy that I quail hunted with when I was a boy named his shotguns. He had a Remington model 11 he called blood and guts. He was a very avid hunter and killed thousands of quail over the years.

Gerry52 · Oct 18, 2022

Mike, I named mine Mike, Tony & Barb (the most accurate gun is Barb)

Vetmx · Oct 18, 2022

When one of my guns get a name it’s profanity based so I can’t post their names on this forum. Otherwise the names the manufacturers give them suffices.
