It's everyone's favorite Gun Owners Radio segment: Stump My Nephew. Sam's a walking gun-trivia encyclopedia — but he's coming off a loss, and Jerry from Orange County has a stumper.

The question: What is the oldest weapon in continuous, unbroken service in the US military inventory?

Sam talks through the usual suspects — the 1911 platform (MARSOC's M45A1) and the M2 .50 cal "Ma Deuce" — before the real answer lands. Hint: it goes back to the Barbary War and a Marine named Presley O'Bannon.

Think you knew it? Drop your guess before the reveal.
