The Brits just don't get this at all.

Say Hello to my lil' Kitt'

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

And those girly purse pistols will kill a rapist dead as hell.

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.

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.

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.

I don’t see the problem here...

I was looking at Charter Arms handguns. They do come in pink and lavendar. I liked the the idea of pretty as well as functional. In addition, my husband would stop using my gun. Then I walked into a store and found my S&W .38 Bodyguard. Light weight, laser scope, no hammer to get caught up in my purse...I LOVE IT!

Though I will admit to carrying it in a pink pistol case.

If they want to go all out...they can produce various colors of ammo; smiley faces and such.

My opinion...Guns should look like guns, not toys. I don’t at all appreciate the mixture of a weapon and Hello Kitty.

Rather than stylishness, I wonder if there could be a major ergonomic redesign of guns for women. That is, working off the average female body, muscle and bone type, to create a gun that would feel and operate better for a woman?

While guns *seem* to be wholly utilitarian, in truth, a lot of its design is to fit a man’s hand, shooting stance, etc. And it is not the best design for that purpose. For example, if you see actors firing guns sideways, stupidly, on TV and in the movies, they do so because it *feels* better, even if they wouldn’t hit the broadside of a barn with a typical gun doing so.

The reason for this is known to martial artists. If you stand up, and hold your fists at your sides in a horse stance, your fists are palm up. But as you extend a fist forward, your muscles want your arm to *rotate*, first so that your palms are pointed inward, where you would typically hold a gun.

And then, as you extend your fists further, your fist continues to rotate, so that your palm is facing down, and your fist is positioned to say, punch someone in the nose. But if you are holding a gun, you would be firing sideways.

So if you did most of your shooting while your arms are fully extended, a handgun has the wrong design. While the handle and trigger would be the same, the gun itself should tilt 90 degrees to the right, if you are right handed. Which would look very odd, indeed.

But if that basic ergonomics has evaded gun design for men, imagine how much redesign is needed for an optimal gun for women?

Women don't need these lil fashionable guns.

Ma Barker got along just fine with her Thompson



And Bonnie Parker just needed her Colt revolver and pump shottie

[IYellAtMyTV]

And for guys who like a little bling...

S&W has been manufacturing the “Lady Smith” for years.

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.
