As far as I have been able to determine, "Saturday Night Special" is a term applied to cheaply made, inexpensive hand guns; easily avilable to rich and poor alike, black/white/tan/yellow/red alike, and even the ladies can get one if they so desire.

What is racist about that?

While that's what it's generally accepted to mean now, you appear to be unaware of origins of the term: It was originally called a "Ni**ertown Saturday Night Special". Over the years, the first word has been dropped from the description. I can recall my father using the full term in the early to mid 1950s.

It was originally called a "Ni**ertown Saturday Night Special" What happened over half a century does not necessarily apply today -- particularly when it comes to thing of that nature. , When was the last time your heard it referred to like that? If you did, you heard the rantings of a died-in-the-wool bigot.
