Seems a new color is becoming popular for firearms...

Yes, they are a "must have".  Kill stuff with a kinder gentler weapon.

Those would be perfect for home defense, particularly at night since they would match my underwear.

hahahaha :) pink guns...

Short story... Last year I decided to update my cell phone as mine was pretty dated feature wise. So, I go to the cell phone store for my carrier and as I was browsing and comparing features and prices a salesman approached me and exclaimed "I have just the phone for you!" and from behind his back he revealed this...



I smiled and informed him that Razr cell phone was obviously a cell phone for a little girl and that I gave up my preference for pink somewhere in middle school! and smiled.

I bought this one...



When men want to market something to women they should ask us what we want, not just assume if they make it pink we will all want buy it because it is pink! :rofl

Were I to ever buy a hand gun I would primarily be interested in three things...

1. light weight... my purse is heavy enough as it is.

2. fits my hand size.

3. Resale value in case I didn't like having it later.

I think a pink gun would look more like a toy to children and attackers.

Both these groups should see a gun for what it really is... a deadly weapon which can hurt or kill.

Edit: I thought this submarine was cute and love the movie it was in... any guesses?

You may have bought a Pocket PC but I bet the first thing you did was to change the display color theme to Hello Kitty.  Don’t even try to deny it.

hahaha... you know Eskimo, I did buy a very cute little Hello Kitty tassel for it in Japan last week as a souvenir but the phone didn't have an eyelet for such a thing!

Shoot... I will have to attach the HK tassel to my pocket book zipper instead. :aok

Nice choice in phones - i could not agree more about the gun color for the reasons you stated.  Can you see a 4'11'' 95lb female cop draw a pink gun?

The movie... operation petticoat, sub name - sea tiger... star - cary grant... my personal fave.

I saw some pink rifles at Gander Mtn. for youths when I was looking awhile back.  Too small for me though:(

Well Pink guns must have an apeal to someone, since they claim they are selling out?


Maybe Euros who have moved here?:D

Thanks Mr. No Name, I love that cell phone and gave it the host name BumbleBee... everyone who sees it marvels at it when I show bumblebee to them.

Just say no to pink guns! :rofl perhaps a gold or chrome plated one would be ok.

I went looking for a light enough looking one just now just to see and found a web site for the magazine called Women & Guns:


This one looks light enough...


You know your movies! ;) I adore that movie!!!! and have had a crush on Cary Grant like forever. I laugh every time I remember the sound of its engine... sounded like a screwed up commode flushing! hahahahahaha

Loved him in the movie Father Goose too... "Goody Two Shoes and the Filthy Beast?" :rofl

Tigress,

Do not focus on the size or weight of the gun to the exclusion of other factors. A very light gun tends to have more recoil making it hard to shoot. That leads to lack of practice and inability to hit the target. If you are interested I recommend you seek training. Take a CCW class. You don't have to get the ccw permit unless you want it, but take the class and then train further.
