WOW !
Not scratched up yet but the closest thing I have to a BBQ gun. OM 357 flat top converted by Mr. Bowen into a dual cylinder 41 mag/41 Special #5 with Persinger carved ivory grips to match my Scottish Highlander cattle.

Ruger KP90DC. Engraved Slide, Metalife coated Frame, Cryopro treated Barrel, Action job by T, Trijiccon Sights, and Hogue Grips. My everyday gun, but it also doubles as a Barbuque Gun.
Here's a .475 Vaquero John Linebaugh built for his friend David Jefferis. David had the gun engraved by a guy who had something to do with the Buffalo Bill museum in Cody, and built the micarta stocks himself. I was planning to help David sell the gun, until I saw it! It's mine now.
This Tri Color came from RugerBoi, and the factory stags came from TucoTom down the road a bit. Thought they'd look good as a pair, and I was right. Both these guns have a little wear, but I'd still take em to the BBQ.

Nothing better than a BBQ gun for a Labor Day BBQ!

Some really nice examples of Gun Engraving Art. I love all forms of Art. Its amazing at the Talent that some people have. I don't have any, and I guess that's the reason, I enjoy those that other people have.

Pardon my ignorance but whats a Bbq gun? Just a real nice gun you'd be proud to take to BBQ to show off?

You have the right Idea.Joe S. said:
Correct me if I am wrong here but I think the term came from Texas law enforcement of old, especially Texas Rangers. They would wear their best gun and leather to BBQs and in court, in time these gentlemen would have a special rig done up with high polish, engraving, pearl/ivory grips, and so on to try and one up each other. They often would be handed down through ones family as heirlooms to be treasured.
Its a rare day you get to wear one to a BBQ today as they will cast a funny eye on you walking around with fancy leather and one of these guns on your hip. But a man should have one in his safe anyways for those occasions when it is encouraged.

I love that 1903! As you can tell by my screen name, I'm a bit of a fan. I like that Smith .32 Safety Hammerless just as much though. Did Michael Gouse do the engraving on both of those as well?

No one can go to a BBQ......but BBQ lunches, dinners, suppers, meals, meats, get togethers, and sauces are really good.

Heliman, those grips on your SP101 look real nice on that gun. I have a GP100 that I would like to get some grips like that for it, where did you get yours?
