Idaho has introduced a bill in their legislature calling for a vote in November on designating a "state gun."
One of the firearms listed in the proposal is the venerable Winchester 1894 .30-30.
This got me checking to see if other states have adopted official state guns. As things turn out, 10 have.
According to NRA Family:
Did you know that seven U.S. states have officially designated state rifles, and that three more have officially designated handguns? Read on for 10 states that showcase their Second Amendment pride!
