Here is another name option. MATILDA, cause when you pull the trigger, YOU ARE WALTZING WITH MATILDA. clap

I saw you take three steps back in your video.

That's neat. Matilda, I mentioned earlier.
I've named my RSM .458 Lott Matilda also.

Don't know about a 4-bore though-it might need to have a little more ooommph to it--like--Bruunhilda!!!and play "Valkries" on the loudspeakers when pulling it out of it's case.lol ala-"Apocolypse Now"

I named my Marlin Guide Gun Mjölnir (and had the title engraved on the left side of its receiver), but that now seems a puny use of the name compared to your rifle. But fine gun like yours calls for a classic handle, in Latin I should think. If the online translator has it right something like "Nex Pulsus"

"Baby" has a long, and fun history. Sam Bakers 2bore to begin with. Cary Grant and K Hepburns Leopard in Bringing Up Baby, in a fantastic film.
The pun in naming such a rifle your 'baby' is just too much to be ignored...

GS
Ignore Robgunbuilder, and Hubel. If any two people on the planet are in the mold of Sam Baker, it's those two.
Also, that disease, caused by excessive recoil, 'sympathetic reflex disorder' or something like that, is just a few shots away from a 6 pack on those two... sofa rotflmo

Mastodon is great. But I still like Thor. That's the same as your shoulder after you fire it and for some reason it doubles on you. BOOM Packy

How about Mosi-oa-Tunya?

It means 'the smoke that thunders' in Batonka.
