Pretty Pink Pistol

FishingPilot · Jan 30, 2013

First of all - DON'T LAUGH!
I purchased a new handgun this morning for the wife to use.
Taurus International Manufacturing Inc

Shoots great. Dead nuts out of the box.

Second - I realize this is not a S&W. I'm posting a Taurus on a S&W site which brings me to my point: I believe there is a HUGE market out there for handguns with some style, not just black or stainless. My wife actually found this gun by searching for "GUNS FOR WOMEN" on Google. I haven't been able to find anything on S&W for a factory handgun with this type of style.

Bottom line - the wife now enjoys shooting with me and is even considering getting here conceal carry permit when the next local class comes up. It was a good day thanks to a pretty pink pistol.

This story would be more believable if there were pictures of you actually holding it.

If that makes her happy...and get her into trigger time with you and the willingness and want to get her CPL or CCW...

Then WELL DONE... and congrats...

I had the same one and exchanged it for a "bigger" gun. The gun is great for concealment but shooting it is horrible. The recoil is worst than my Springfield XD subcompact.

And trust me I love pink guns

Since my S&W MP 15-22 is pink

Whatever it takes to get more LADIES SHOOTING.

Then they too can write to politicos and express their opinions.

They VOTE TOO you know.

Yes Yes! Pic proof is needed!

But seriously, like others have said here, if that makes gun
ownership more palatable to her, great!

What's not to like? Shoots great, wife enjoys it and plans to use it for concealed carry.
Works for me.

they also make a 40 in that style. Almost bought one for my girl but she said she doesnt want a pink gun, and asked for camo. Go figure

It's a little stiff (watch the snickering...) but she can handle it. Other reviews said it will get easier over time.

Isn't she pretty in pink

GerSan69 · Jan 30, 2013

I bought my wife one of those, with the stainless slide, for Christmas a couple years ago. She was thrilled! So this past Christmas, I gave her a 3" Model 36 with pink Hogue grips. Scored again!
I also know a policewoman with pink cuffs. Girls and their toys...

I bought Mrs Engineer pink gun cases from Midway. She has her cases, easy to find, and I can still shoot her guns after she opens the case -- a giggle proof solution. Also found two of her "missing" guns in the back of the vault.

Uh! well ok. It sure is pink.

Fishslayer · Jan 30, 2013
