Voters on Tuesday preferred the Winchester Model 1873 rifle in early returns as their favorite to become Idaho’s state gun.

The Model 1873 had received 31.2% of the vote as of 1:10 a.m. Wednesday. The Winchester Model 1894 was next with 25.4%.

The vote, which was on a nonbinding advisory question, pit six firearms against each other for the possible honorific. The state Legislature would have to take action to make the designation official.
