I would assume that any women who is interested in carrying a gun is kinda beyond the cutesy-glitter/kitty-cat thing.

Dude, though many would be loathe to admit it, almost NO woman is beyond the "cutesy-glittering/kitty-cat thing".

Ok, I don't want crystals on my grips! Can you imagine the pain after a while?

Besides, gunmetal grey goes with everything. ;-)

I have a concealed carry license, and I am not above having a pink gun. Yes, I think they are cute! However, I worry about other people believing it is a child’s toy.

It’s what makes it that much more awesome. A girly girl who knows how to shoot.

My sister's husband spent a good deal of time customizing an AR-15 for my sister. It's a pinkish-purple with ‘tiger-style’ stripes the full length of the gun. My sis once had a picture on Facebook with her holding the weapon with an enormous grin, but she removed it for security purposes. Didn't want to give any potential thieves any ideas.

Given how well-armed my sister and her hubby are, it's not likely a thief would've survived the encounter anyway.

Mrs. BCC’s Ruger P89 (yes, she has a big purse) was just dandy till these girly pistols came out. Oh, well, any excuse to buy a new gun is good enough for me.

Nothing like an adorable way to reach out and take off someones arm at 500 meters.

My mom is British and she loves to shoot guns. That is one of her Favorite pass times when she comes to the states to visit.

That is nice. Expensive, but nice. I can’t seem to find if this comes in a chrome version. Wife is allergic to nickel and have been looking to find her something that is both lightweight and concealable. Wow. Maybe I’ll get one for the second carry.
