I think it was the Kentucky Long Rifle

[1Browning2]

I believe it was a Browning 1911. One of John Browning's original designs until he sold the patten to Colt, if I'm not mistaken.

[Gary Devine]

Utah’s gun should be a Browning rifle because the Browning plant is located in Morgan, Utah.

I say a Browning 300 mag. rifle.
Just a wild guess!

[Grassroots89]

Definitly a 1911, remember them saying that in an issue of Field and Stream.

[RockySquirrel]

Browning 1911. Cause, I believe the Browning plant is in Utah

[M.A.T]

The 1911, because Browning was born in Ogden, Utah.

[99explorer]

And the answer is...(drum roll)... the M1911 pistol, designed by John M. Browning, a native of Ogden, Utah.

[99explorer]

Arizona designated the Colt Single Action Army revolver, Indiana adopted the Grouseland rifle and West Virginia picked the Hall rifle.
No other states have adopted an official state gun.

[Ontario Honker Hunter]

I heard New York is considering the Mattel cap gun.

[JustTakeMeHunting14]

not anymore they confiscated my mattel last week because it holds more than eight caps in the side so apparently its a tactical/assault weapon
