Here's me with my .54 caliber Early Lancaster I called "Lorraine", after my wife whom I married in 1971. The reason: Neither has ever let me down.

And Me, at Ft Ligonier with the other which is my .62 caliber French Tulle de Chase that I called "Erin", after my daughter. She was a high school and collegiate (Univ. of Florida) shot putter. The reason for the naming of the Tulle was that both her and the tulle throw a big, round, ball. And they're good at it.
