Tam reminds us that today is the birthday of John Moses Browning. PBUH. She's got a run-down of firearms that were blessed by the hand of JMB; take a look at the list and see how many of his designs reside in your gun cabinet.
I've got five:
Winchester 1894
Winchester 1890
Winchester 1897
Remington Model 11
U.S. M1911
Happy Birthday, Mr. Browning.
That is all.

Wow an 1890 -- what chambering? I have one in .22 WRF.
It's actually a 1906 in .22S/L/LR, the 1906 being the next model after the 1890. But Tam didn't list the 1906 (even though it *is* a JMB creation...)
Just counted and I have seven of his designs, looks like I have more to go.
Interesting to note the use of PBUH in your post. You see, Peace Be Upon Him comes from Islam, and at least with the Ma Deuce and maybe others, JMB's creations are being used against the Islamofacist crowd. Not that I'm opposed to taking out the Islamofacists - quite the contrary - but you did provide an interesting irony of sorts.
