Yeah, it's a Texas thing, but we honor it here in Ohio, just for fun.

Our cattle eat Texas hay when we have a drought and we send some down to Texas when they have one. Must be how it got started here in S.C.
We usually find a few minutes to shoot them too. The BBQ guns, not the cattle or the Texans.

It probably started as a Texas thing, these days its a gun forum thing, a chance to show off your nicest handguns in hand tooled western leather to your virtual friends and neighbors.

Just out of curiosity, what is the average number of accidental discharges at a BBQ?
What's the record?

Those was my Dad's spurs. He bought them from a cowhand on the ranch for $50.00 back in the 40's. The belt buckle come from a belt my Mom gave him on a birthday back in the 40's when I was just a pup. It was one of his prize possessions and he wore it everyday and plumb wore it out. So yeh, they don't shine much now, but I can remember when they did, and that's even better.

We wear our guns to barbeques here in order to exclude undesirables, like liberal gun haters. Works very well as a repellant. The shooting usually precedes the drinking.

looks like the leather is as important as the gun.very nice leather in these posts.if i had a bbq gun id be tempted to carry it unloaded at a bbq.people will want to look at it and i dont hand a loaded gun to anyone except close family or very close friends.
