Idaho is asking voters to select an 'official state gun'...

OCUser — Sat, 24 Oct 2026 21:36:59 -0400

You may be thinking: That is so Idaho.

Whether that's good or bad is up to voters.

The Gem State will become the 11th state to designate an official state gun. Utah was the first, choosing the M1911 in 2011.

In Idaho, House Bill 932 is the reason voters will get to make their pick on the ballot. The bill passed unanimously in both the Idaho House and Senate during the 2026 legislative session.

The official ballot question asks voters: "Which of the following guns should be designated as the state gun of Idaho?" Voters are instructed to choose only one. The six choices are the Winchester Model 1894 (.30-30); Winchester Model 1873 "Gun that Won the West" (.44-40); 1873 Colt Single Action Army Revolver "Peacemaker" (.45 Colt); M1 Garand rifle (.30-06); Colt M1911 .45 automatic Colt pistol (.45 ACP); and Remington Model 700 bolt-action rifle (.30-06).
