[QUOTE="Core781, post: 1651325, member: 106156"] No. But it's normal for Humans to name inanimate objects: it goes back to beginning of recorded history. Being tools, I do not name "them.." I believe most of my forefathers named their guns before me: which leads me to believe I should too. All the great gun-men in American history named their favorite guns. When they fail: I want to remember they are mechanical devices and nothing more. Going back further: Humans have associated names, deities, gods, with their weapons. As a descendant of Vikings, some of my ancestors where named after the weapons their father wielded. It's really a fascinating subject. [/QUOTE]
