Firearm Photo Contest?

Anyone here think it would be a good idea? We could have whoever want to post pics on a thread with a poll, everybody votes and then....I dont know, maybe we can work out some sort of prize? Has this been attempted or done before?

What do you guys think?

Hmmm, seems to me the cutie holding the M4 would unduly influence me in favor of that pic....

They are nothing special, but it's the best I can do











The photos don't do the beautiful blueing of the HP and the S&W any justice.
