Stag grips are a great looking alterenative-
Yeah, I remember this guy, another typical arrogant Texan who declared himself the sole arbiter on what constitutes a BBQ gun and doesn't believe that barbeque happens in other states. I suspect that there are many members here who'd argue many of his criteria for a barbeque gun.
I've had plenty of disagreements with the character in question. However, if the concept doesn't have well defined parameters, or if it's subject to interpretation, then the term has no meaning. As he said in the post, "You can call any gun a BBQ gun. It is still a free country. But calling a cow a bull, don't make it a bull."Yeah, I remember this guy, another typical arrogant Texan who declared himself the arbiter on what constitutes a BBQ gun and doesn't believe that barbeque happens in other states.

Closest I have, which wouldn't qualify according to "cozmo" since it's not a 1911 or S&W...

So one anonymous guy on an internet forum gets to define the parameters of an old concept (probably older than he was)?However, if the concept doesn't have well defined parameters, or if it's subject to interpretation, then the term has no meaning.

He's not anonymous. He's actually a fairly well known 1911 builder with a very extensive collection of USFA and Colt SAA's, including many "BBQ guns". I posted the link to that thread because it had a thorough and accurate description that matches what I had always heard from multiple sources. Not because it's the only place to find such a description.So one anonymous guy on an internet forum gets to define the parameters of an old concept (probably older than he was)?
Yep, I was aware. But he's still anonymous to most casual forum browsers.He's not anonymous. He's actually a fairly well known 1911 builder with a very extensive collection of USFA and Colt SAA's, including many "BBQ guns".

What, there's "rules?"The guy didn't make the rules
On that we agree (having spent much time in both Texas and Tennessee while in the military).As far as I'm concerned, we have better BBQ than Texas.
My reaction was simply my commentary on the stereotypical arrogant Texan who believes that Texas is the center of the universe and everything Texan is the pinnacle.of existence.
