Why would you want someone' elses name on your rifle? If you like someone that much have them autograph your arm and get it tattooed

Some years back, a friend of mine that was an officer in a neighboring department,stopped in at the Hog's Breath Inn in Carmel, CA, which happened to be owned by Clint Eastwood. Dirty Harry himself showed up. My friend asked Eastwood if he would autograph his off duty revolver which he gladly did.

My wife and I went to the Hog's Breath Inn a number of times but I was never fortunate enough to see Eastwood. I think it was pretty cool to get the autograph on his gun.

Just curious what everyone thinks.

Say you are at a shooting event, expo, show and etc and a dignitary (people like Generals, president of NRA, former seal team member, John McCain and etc) were there and you have access, would you ask them to autograph your firearms?

Is it going to hurt the gun value with the autographs if down the road I have to sell?

I know I can always try to take off the autographs but I don't want to take the chance of possibly damaging the original finishing.

so you get it autographed and then what, you just put it in the safe? I can't think of a single autograph that would stand up to being cleaned and oiled.

I'm not much for autographs anyway.

Only if it was a model 29.

NEVER!

[joepamjohn]

I wonder if Gavin or Hillary would sign my AR?

[Cokebottle]

And why would I want McCain's autograph on one of my guns?

I'll give him mad props for his service to our country and his fellow POWs.
But John Kerry served in that same war, and I do not look up to either of them.

I believe John Wayne autograph one of the rifles on the wood stock that was used in the movie the Alamo, that obviously increased its value.

but I don't have any safe-Queens, so I don't think I would ask anyone alive just sign a gun because then you can't really use it as it was intended to be used it becomes something that you just wait around to sell.

How about an engraved autograph? Like les Baer signed/engraved on a les baer?

As for how op describes , no, not for me

[sfe187]

Thanks everyone that commented, I thought it might be a little unique thats all.

[Tri750]

If you think it's unique and you like the idea, who are any of us to suggest not doing it ?
I say, if it makes you happy, do it.

I color filled ^my lower^, some hate that. Do what you like. I'm not into autographs, never was interested in that.

[L84CABO]

I'm not starstruck so autographs do nothing for me. And once a gun is signed, I'm not sure how you would go about keeping it from getting messed up unless it then became a safe queen.

I do suppose there is a market for everything. Whether this would increase the value of the gun and even if you could sell it, would probably depend on who signed it.

i'll surmise that there are some notables whose signature/mark on a weapon they owned would increase said weapon's value for the next and future owners if the signature/mark was in addition to other documentation that identified that weapon as belonging to that notable. there were/are those that used a firearm as a tool of their trade that marked their weapons just as many mechanics mark their tools.
regarding meeting a celebrity and having that person autograph my weapon, i'm not an autograph hound and wouldn't seek one on a firearm if i was.
