So a friend/fellow sniper and I were talking and he mentioned he names his customized guns. Being we are working on Project Silent Angel he decided to name his newest APS2-SV. So for the 5 seconds before he tells me the name my head spins with all the historical references, then he tells the rifle is named Angel. How appropriate! Now for another 5 seconds I despise him for taking such a great name, but I quickly get over it!

So now it's almost 3 days later (yesterday 6/1) and I'm online looking at more airsoft gear to spend my money on and I find myself thinking about it again. So I brainstorm a bit, and finally come up with "Caretaker". Figure I have made many a shot that have kept teamates from being shot and it seems to be on target.

Anyone else have a name for their airsoft rifle?

Um.. I think Rabbit named his Juliette.

I personally haven't named mine, maybe because I don't see it as an item to be named, more so just a tool, and me being the weapon on the field.

But I guess I can do some brainstorming, and see what I can't come up with.

I don't really have a name for my rifle, most of the time I call it the '40' or just 'my rifle.'

I would kinda like to come up with a nice name, or something to at least give it a more unique feel to it. But I guess not many people have a M40A3 anyways, but I digress.

It's made by Fortress, and was released about six months ago. Although they are prone to breaking. I think that have since been discontinued.

Thanks everyone for the comments, it's a shame it's broken, hopefully Jump can fix it nice and good.

I haven't fiberglassed it yet, Rabbit. Jump is going to fix everything with fiberglass and what not, although I'm not going to have the whole exterior done, I just use texture paint anyways.

To answer your question. Dont waist your money on the fortress stock, by all accounts its an over priced and fragile piece of crap, only what I heard and have witnessed on the forums

I made mine into an L96, much better

My M15A1 is called Maggie

Not a snipers weapon really, but for me its a jack of all trades

I don't think I should name my rifle yet because I am still getting used to it.

GRAMMAR CORRECTED (As part of REMINDER.)
