The color concern........ not all guns are stainless or blued anymore

[Busted Knuckle]

So what do you fine folks think about the color options of guns available today?

The first gun not blued or stainless I purchased was a Sig Mosquito w/ Purple metallic frame
for my daughter - her favorite color - she loves it and believe it or not it has performed
absolutely flawless for 1500+ rounds

Next was a 1911 in FDE for my son (both kids....... are adults now)

Kahr (and MANY others) have a few current offerings outside the standard black or stainless
Purple, Robin Eggshell Blue, and Burnt Bronze

so - what's too much (yes there is too much)- or just enough

No, never! Traditional is fine with me when it comes to most things.

I think the colors are cool .Having said that I would buy only traditional cholors for me.

I'm a Ford man. You can have any color you want as long as it's black.

I think they look pretty nice. Depending of course of the taste of the owner. Click HERE for lots of examples.

The process is great for restoration also. Here are a couple BEFORE and AFTER pics. (sorry, I'm still not authorized to post attachments)

Or in Jeepsters case - as long as it's green.

I've bought my wife a Charter Arms Santa Fe Blue .38 and a purple Ruger SR22. I put OD green furniture on my AR and am looking at a Sig in FDE. Three years ago I wouldn't have even thought twice about it.

I usually stick to the norm, but that robins egg blue Kahr is very sharp!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
