It would be interesting to find out how these slang terms came into being. Who first coined the phrases.

FYI I did some searching and found the following couple of possibilities on Roscoe.

Where did the term "Roscoe" come from when referring to a pistol? - Yahoo! Answers

I've always just called my Kimber...... Kimber. Don't have names for any of my other.

I met Margaret at the store, it just felt so right when I held her ... I had to bring her home with me .... I'd trust her with my life ... I keep her close to me at all times .... She's usually in my pants IWB .... I sleep with her close by .......Sometimes I rub oil on her ..... I better stop telling you about Margaret, or you'll want her too ...

Though, like my Ex-Wife, sometimes she makes a LOT of noise.

Margaret? Margaret? Oh, man, reminds me of the nuns I had in Catholic school (Sister Mary Margaret, Sister Margaret Mary). As long as you were gonna name her, what about something sexy, like, I don't know...Brigitte, Tammy, Becky, Sara....

Great post. LMAO.

Nope, I don't name my guns but I have a friend that refers to the Surefire Responder forearm on my home defense shotgun (an 1100 Remington that's set up almost identically to the 1187 K-9 model that Scattergun Technologies sells) as the 'God Light' because when I first showed it to him, I did it in an unlit interior room that it lit up better than the ceiling fixture with 2 100 watt light bulbs. A 90 lumen flashlight is a weapon unto itself in a low light situation and I do prefer my shooting to be accurate.
