Whatever it is, it's increasing...There has been a significant increase in women visiting my LGS this last year...And the display of pink & baby blue handguns, as well as smaller size handguns, has taken over a complete shelf in the display case...

Good for them...

All three of my daughters are very experienced with class 3 weapons and destructive devices.

One daughter no longer has any guns around the house (known to her husband) since her husband is a wimp.

The other two do. Of these two, one likes to hunt. (See Picture.)

Looks like a cute girl with her deer ?

Then the second picture is of a different daughter (June, 2013) with her last child. Looks cute.

but any of the three daughters, if you really cross them, will kill you and I mean it literally.

Oh, and they do not like colored weapons like pink, cameo, etc.

One does not like a muzzle brake on her rifles as she claims that they make a big ball of fire, which makes it easy to be spotted.

My wife likes to blaze away with her .357 - usually loaded with .38 spcl. Doesn't like automatics 'cause of the flying brass, give 'er a revolver!

Is 'cameo' that robin's egg blue color??? I am thinking that women like to have pink/blue colors because they know it will always be THEIR go-to gun, and nobody else's...And they're right...

I ain't carrying the days receipts to the night deposit with a pink Chief's Special...

No, I was talking about the camouflage ones. My daughters would be more concerned about how well they work, not the color.

I hope my kids turn out to be bad-ass

Talking about pink objects...

One of my duties at work is to maintain a rather large fleet of loaner laptop computers, check them in and out, etc. Gals usually bring them back no problems; but at least 50% of the time, I have to go after the guys who want to keep them for months.

We have one small netbook which is in a bright PINK bag. The guys *ALWAYS* bring it back on time! I'm threatening to buy pink bags for the entire fleet...
