My daughter prefers brighter colors... ![[Linked Image]](http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee202/bridgershooters/shooting/119_2983_zps8190b585.jpg) Seems her eyes don't so much.

Now that Dan has me second guessing my decision to have the gun done in girly pink colors. I hope a few others will comment on this thread. I think the idea of using a firearm as a visual deterrent is about as ridiculous as telling people that if a bad guy hears the cycling of a shotgun, the bad guy will pee-pee in his pants and run away.

Well, the color will make it easier for her to find in her purse.

She can reduce the "cute gun" effect of the pink pistol by having a skull and cross bones tattooed on her trigger finger.

I think it's great. If she's excited about it, then she may want to actually shoot it and carry it; and that's what you want!
I've been eyeballing one of those Ruger LC9's with the purple frame for my daughter. She's several years away from CCW, but I may have to pick one up when the opportunity presents.
It's funny, my daughter LOVES colored pistols, but my wife only likes auto-pistols, and only if they're black.

this The whole idea in letting her pick out the colors and patern was to give the pistol a kind of Personalized touch and make it "her's"

Jamie
Anyone dumb enough to stand there long enough to be shot let alone advance on a pissed off woman with a gun regardless of color and is afraid for her life is an idiot and deserves to be shot.
As said above I'm sure bad guys have learned guns aren't necessarily just black or silver anymore.
I concur with KG and most of the posters that you did well. Letting her pick her handgun then personalizing it for her gives her pride and she will most likely take ownership of it and learn to use it well.

For the fist time ever,this morning my daughter asked me if I wanted to go shooting. I've always had to invite her. 25' about half with the sites and half with a laser. ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v376/elkhunter/Mobile%20Uploads/image_zpsea6a6441.jpg)

That's great!
I see that you still draw a face on your targets, along with adding a heart to the torso! You're so silly!

Well Jamie, you've made it so if she ever has to pull it, she'll have to shoot it. A gang-banger or car-jacker will see it and just know she doesn't have a real gun and that will be that. Sometimes they run when they know the other person is armed. Now, they'll just laugh at her and advance. She'll have to kill or be killed. Personally, let her use it at the range, but for serious work, carry a damned serious friggin gun. Lot of truth here. I prefer to look at a gun with the idea that the bad guy is intimidated and leaves and you don't have to shoot him. This one......maybe not so much.
