Any of you name your rifles?

Yes I have named my 22 hornet! and yes I sometimes feel like a 12 year old kid. ::) ;D I named the little hornet "puff the magic dragon" LOL. My buddy and I went out last week-end and as he says "puffed" a bunch of prairie poodles. This is my first hornet and wish I bought one a long time ago as it has been nothing but fun. I always enjoy setting up the benches and shooting the .223's ,.204's , 22-250 etc. but I got a kick out of just walking around leaning over the fence or over the hood of truck, standing, sitting etc. shooting the hornet....laughing like a kid as this little round would launch prairie dogs 5 feet in the air sometimes! ;D. Sometimes the simple things in life can be fun. Just needed to share with the like minded...thanks guys! :D

My shooting buddy calls his anti-groundhog rilfes " Friskies' "...... short for " Friskies Buffet ".
This, after their older commercial , where the slogan was ......

" They DON'T walk away.... from Friskies Buffet " !

My blue laminate F-Class rig is "Bleu"

Lol...
 
one of my good shooting buddies has a 22-250 nicknamed "Fugly".

it's assembled with various leftover parts, has a custom barrel and shoots lights out!
 
I had a remington model 788 in 22-250 and I called it my little red blood cloud maker.
 
I never have given any of my rifles a name, but I sure have called them some names when I wasn't shooting well ;D
 
I called mine a P.O.S. once when the bullets wouldn't go where I told them to go. After a few minutes I figured out what was wrong and changed my name to Dumb A$$!!
