Do your guns have names and genders?

[Wood Worker]

No, I think personification of inanimate objects is a slippery slope.

 

[JohnnyBoy]

My guns self identify as emotional support animals.

I named my dog Shark. Can't take him to the beach though....

 

[OldBroad44]

No names or genders, but they do identify themselves as long distance paper punches.
Come to think about it all most all of them can not swim, had a boating accident and most of them sank to the bottom of a bottomless lake. They must be in china by now.

All guns mentioned on this forum are understood to be ones we had in the past only, all having subsequently been lost in tragic boating accidents.

Seems difficult to name one when stuff is modular... If I swap the upper, is it still the same gun?

I don't know. Maybe guns where you swap parts don't have names. Or maybe the name goes with some particular part. Not all my guns have had names. Most didn't. Those that do/did have announced their names to me, sometimes after long use, but often before I even bought them. In fact, lately often when I was on the way to trying to buy something else. I suspect revolvers are more likely to have consciousness and announce their names to me than semi autos. Every time I try to buy the latest high capacity plastic wonder, some revolver way lays me yelling "Look at me!" Then when I pick it up, he/she tells me his/her name and starts crooning about how we would be just right for each other. And I forget all about the plastic wonders and instead buy another revolver.

Forgot about this one. Sometimes say is Srta. Ráfaga. Push the right buttons and "she" is quite the firecracker.

I have named every car and gun I've ever owned.

My rifle prefers the it pronoun and is offended when people misgender it as assault

 

[Dr Prepper]

No, my guns don't like labels.

They arent BUY curious of prefer gender pronouns!?

I just call mine this one, and that one etc. And save the calories for something useful.

Dang It he beat me to it! Only made to page one. Lol.

 

[Dr Prepper]

How about non-binary? They prefer to be called 'It'.

My friend has one of them there "non binary's" but its always going after binary targets..
I guess they like cross pollinatin'.

I think the term is "polyamorous".. In other words it wants some polymer80 stuff to sit on.

 

[No_Regerts]

I only name things right before I throw them, beat them on the ground, or smash it against a tree. The only names I've come up with are: "piece of schit!", "motherPHUQER!", and "kochsucker nose!".

 

[JO JO]

Nope not I

 

[TDH]

nope!

My Ak47 identifies as a derringer.

No judging, identity politics are apparently all important.

Suggest to your AK-47 that it consider identifying as a squirt gun. The gun grabbers will be uninterested in squirt guns.
