When I was a guard there was a worker that we nick-named "stay car". He was some kind of psyco, whip thin, dark with the most paranoid fearful continence you could imagine. I heard he was the son of a company execitive and no doubt thats how he held his simple job. He would arrive early and stay locked in his van untill a sympthatic woman co worker would show up to walk him through the gate. Every morning was a show. He would get out of his van lock the doors and stand there for about 2 minuets trying the latchs repeatedly. Then he would walk backwards telling the van, "stay car" pointing at it like you would a dog you were trying to train to sit! He would then turn and walk straight then unexpectedly turn around yelling again at the car to stay!
Every time I hear someone talk about nameing their gun or car I think of that nut!
A co worker of his noticed there was a hole in the wall by some barrels that he threw parts in that was his job filling. They layed for him behind the wall and stuck their arm through the hole and grabbed his arm as he was reaching towards the barrel! From what I heard he really flipped out!

Only one...
A McMillan 50 single shot.. Named it "Ricin" and sent them a picture of castor beans to use as the stock color pattern. Turned out their interpretation was Desert Storm Camo... Close enough I guess.
One molecule of ricin will kill a cell. One hit with a 50BMG round is usually fatal to the organism as well. Also rumored to work on "Black Helicopters".
YMMV

Named my M-60 machine gun "Quaz" .. carrying it would make you a hunchback. Named my M-14 Sadie .. and I have no idea why.
My CS45 is Brody.. model 66 is Stanley ... model 60 is Roscoe .. model 28 is Smokey ... and my model 19 is Veronica .. ( because she's pretty)
And yes I've named my house too. & I can't tell you what it is or I'll get scolded for " creative spelling "

No names, but I refer to my pair of N frames, a M28-2 and a Model of 1950 Target as "Mr. & Mrs. Smith."
