If Jesus was carrying a Colt .45

Jesus wouldn't have carried a firearm. The whole point was to die.

Christians say to "be like Christ," until it doesn't suit them.

It would be far more accurate to say that Christians are to do their utmost to follow His teachings. One of those teachings is found in Luke 22:36, He said to them, "But now if you have a purse, take it, and also a bag; and if you don't have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one."

I would strongly suspect that His advice in this day and age would not be to buy a sword.

Well, I suppose He wouldn't advise buying a Beretta--Italian origins and all.

Perhaps a Desert Eagle--Isreali origin?

Or, maybe a 1911--Browning/Mormon origin?

But to buy an AK47. Or did I mistake your intent?
