I saw a blue anodized pistol several months ago, but I can't recall where. Does anyone have some links to guns anodized in different colors?
This is just crazy!
Chas.
I looked at a Ruger .22 auto pistol at the local gunshop that was blue anodized. Guns are supposed to be blue steel and real wood IMHO but, if pink guns will get the ladies to packing then bring out the pink spray paint!
Honestly, the colors of firearms have gone all over the spectrum in the last few years - - - pink, green, red, or a combination of colors what's the difference? I still say
BLUE STEEL AND WALNUT!
I think the colorful guns are good for our cause.
The main reason it is good is because sits important to many women. This is something that us guys can't fully understand. I have no idea why one color is "prettier" or better than another color, or why my wife finds an olive green tie offensive with my yellow shirts, but it is meaningful to her therefore meaning to me.
Handguns are about personal protection. Being personalized to its user is certainly an indulgence which most of us understand. Many of us polish buff, and have triggers adjusted, grip tape installed. Color is just as reasonable.
We called our M16s when we were presented with them Mattel toys. The idea of of a black plastic weapon seemed silly to us back then. While my preference is towards a dull grey stainless I will carry a chartreuse gun if it works well for me.
