[ray1970]

Let's play a game.

Here are some pictures of some famous people from the world of firearms.

Can you name them?

(Hint- #7 and #8 kind of go together)

Nine seemed like an odd number so I added a tenth famous person for extra credit. He isn't a firearm person so best of luck to you.

I believe #3 is Sam Colt.

[sellersm]

7&8 are Smith & Wesson, at least #8 is Daniel Wesson.

[ray1970]

I believe #3 is Sam Colt.

You are correct. [Awesom]

Now name the other nine people.

[TheBelly]

isn't #10 William Harley?

[sellersm]

4 is Mr. AK himself!

I'll leave the rest to others...

[ray1970]

7&8 are Smith & Wesson, at least #8 is Daniel Wesson.

Yep.

Right again. [Awesom]

[sellersm]

isn't #10 William Harley?

I think you're right...

[sellersm]

OK, one more: #6 is William Ruger.

[TheBelly]

#9 Eliphalet Remington

[TheBelly]

#5 Mr. John T. Thompson... (invented the tommy gun)

[TheBelly]

#6 is ... crap you beat me to it... AKA Bill Ruger.

[ray1970]

Man, you guys are good.

And, yes, #10 is William S. Harley. [Awesom]

[Irving]

#4 is the only one I instantly knew, just because he didn't look European like the others. I guessed 7 & 8 because of the way that you gave the hint. I have a feeling I could just start listing names and probably name the others by chance. #10 looks familiar, but I can't put a name on it. I'm no history buff.

[ray1970]

It's all just for fun.

I was bored. [Coffee]

[sellersm]

Don't think I see Gaston Glock? [Rant1] [LOL]

[TheBelly]

truth in lending:


I cheated.

[sellersm]

A guess cuz the image isn't one I recall seeing, but the face seems to be the same: is #2 Oliver Winchester?

[blackford76]

Isn't #1 Eugene Stoner?

[Dr_Fwd]

A guess cuz the image isn't one I recall seeing, but the face seems to be the same: is #2 Oliver Winchester?

[Dr_Fwd]

Thank you! I coudn't recall his name.

[spleify]

Isn't #1 Eugene Stoner?

Yep!

[sellersm]

I'll play: who's this?
