We briefly had a Dale Earnhardt Special Edition Remington 1100 shotgun at the gun store where I work, it sold last week, and now we've got another NASCAR star featured on a gun.
Bill Elliott is still racing, though his glory days appear to be behind him. But in 1988, he was the NASCAR Winston Cup Champion and Smith & Wesson made a limited edition S&W 586 Nickel .357 Magnum revolver in his honor.
In case you're not a racin' fan, Bill Elliott is from Dawsonville, Ga., hence his nickname became "Awesome Bill From Dawsonville." And if you are a racin' fan and a Bill Elliott fan, you can buy this S&W 586 on gunbroker. Or just look at the pretty pictures. That's free.
On this day in history, in 1762, Catherine the Great assumed power in
Russia, after forcing the abdication of Peter the Kinda Okay and crushing
the rise of Ivan the Meh [Vintage]
