I've been intrigued by that one as well. Seems that I read somewhere (maybe on one of the pages here) that the cast referred to it as the "Nuclear tomahawk" or "nuclear war club" due to it's size.
And then there was that "nut-cracking" comment in the Russell Means interview.
I've seen a variety of opinions as to just which tribes used the gunstock war club.
Also, conflicting opinions as to whether it was inspired by the European gunstock or in fact predated the arrival of the Europeans.
