Do you happen to have a pink gun? :)

No, but my wife does. Cute little Taurus .380.

Oh, well, any excuse to buy a new gun is good enough for me.

That needs to be stolen and turned into a tagline.

That little hottie has learned to handle a lot of different guns ... I wonder if she’s ever really ‘gone shooting’?

Well, yes. No fees. That’s the whole point of stealing something. :^)

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

Why?

We are women, not men with breasts.

Some of us like being cutesy cuddly pink and adorable while still being totally lethal if necessary.

It is all part of the fun of being a girl.

It was a tough choice between a pink or a black Walther- on the one hand, pink ads insult to injury, but in the end, black goes with everything. I slightly regret it now that I live in Arizona because I’d be styling with open carry ;) Seriously though, I think a gun is too serious to treat as a fashion accessory, but as long as one knows a pink one will kill just as well then the color is moot.

My wife likes pink because it’s easy to find in a drawer in a darkened room. And we live in AZ, too.

If I’m going to be lethal it will be in black leather and blue steel, thank you very much.

Always admired Mrs. Peel. Her leather cat suit was a real meow.

:flutters eyelashes:

You are such a fine gentleman.

:grin:

Of course, it depends on the lady but my cousin and I both grew up wearing Polly Flinders dresses, bows in our ringlets and our own shotguns as birthday gifts at age eight.

I am more classic now days, she is more frilly still but we both still shoot whenever we can.

Call me crazy, but I believe a gun should always be on your person, and not in a bag/or purse which could be snatched away.
