You don't have one you say?
You would be correct, unless....
You live in Utah:

QuoteA Browning M1911 semiautomatic pistol may soon join the sego lily, Rocky Mountain elk and sugar beet as official symbols of the state of Utah.
The State Senate is considering a measure passed by the House of Representatives on Wednesday that would declare the .45-caliber handgun the official state firearm — the first in the country.
"This firearm was created by John Moses Browning, who was a son of Utah pioneers," said Republican Rep. Carl Wimmer of Herriman, Utah, during debate on the House floor. "This firearm really has defended liberty and freedom around the country and around the world. And I think this is a very appropriate designation to capture a portion of the state history."
Ugh, who can afford to shoot .45 anymore.
The UK state gun is the .38 Smith and Wesson Model 10, being shot into the head of an innocent Brazilian plumber carrying a chair leg.

The national arms may as well be SA-80 volant to fucking drawing board.
I made a bad, anyway. SO19 carry 9mm Glocks for when they routinely decide to kill innocent people for suspicious acts like walking to a train, or carrying a table leg home, or being asleep in bed.
St. Louis's official gun is stolen :|
Ugh, remember when they leaked "...might have been an illegal" to muddy the water about the killing?

Yup. And the false testimony about him wearing a heavy coat and jumping the turnstile...and also when the Sun printed Brazil's murder figures to show he eventually would have been shot anyway by someone and it was only a matter of who and when.
Great times.

It comes in a dozen other calibers. Though .45 wasn't that much more expensive than anything else (that's not a .22) last I checked. At least in Utah, I hear there are shortages elsewhere in the country.

Yup. The ammunition stocks still haven't recovered from the collective fudd reaction to Obama's running mate.
