"I want a gun.... but not black"
« on: May 28, 2015, 05:16:11 PM »
So out of the blue, my wife wants a gun (YESSS). So I started showing her these different guns...

Starting with the Glock 43.
She says, "But that's a Glock." Uh.. yes, it is. "You don't like Glocks." I mean.. they're reliable guns, they will work. "But it's ugly."

Ugh.. ok, moving on. Showed her the Walther PPS.
She says, "Ehh... I like your Walther more (PPQ)"

Let's put that as a maybe. Moving on.... what about another CZ 75 Compact (cross fingers)?
She says, "But I don't want black." Well.... bleep...

Suggestions?!

Something in stainless? My wife's eyes gravitated towards a bunch of large frame revolvers, especially the ones with the long barrels. She pointed to them and said, "Now, those are real guns." sigh...

Mine fell for 75B matte stainless.  Once she had it, she decided we should join a local range as full members ( ;D)

TELL her to temporarily ignore the "looks" of the gun and go for fit. Then once she finds something she likes, then look for the window dressing.

This has got to be the best thing I've heard all day.

She really likes the RAMI. Doesn't mind that it's black. I think we found the gun!
