Today I learned that states have been assigning a "state gun" (like a state bird or state tree)
So far 11 states have a designated firearm

Alaska: Pre-1964 Winchester Model 70
Arizona: Colt Single Action Army revolver
Arkansas: Shotgun
Indiana: Grouseland Rifle
Kentucky: Kentucky Long Rifle
Missouri: Hawken Rifle
Pennsylvania: Pennsylvania Long Rifle
Tennessee: Barrett M82
Texas: Colt Walker & Cannon
Utah: M1911 Pistol
West Virginia: Hall Model 1819 Flintlock Rifle
