Been wanting an AR trainer for a while and my GF's been wanting something in my collection that would be ..." Hers". Well happened to make the joke at at he pawn shop saying I'd love to have one of those dedicated AR 22lr's. Well guess what got ordered and put on layaway [emoji23] anyhow pink is her favorite color and there's a call of duty skin I love that I figured would look good on a real life gun sooo [emoji16]

Also have a lot of female friends who want to learn how to shoot and something about a painted up gun gets them excited and more at ease. Not to mention I like how much it seems to irritate people LOL !!
So paint job replaced the trigger spring with lighters ones , 3-12x44 centerpoint, knock off Harris ten round mag and booooooooy this thing is FUN !!

Will say though I probably should have planned it better because I about caused her to have an asthma attack lol.
"ITS PINK !! I LOVE I....*starts coughing*

Way cool.
It looks like you're on the right path.

Before we got married 20-odd years ago, I asked the potential Mrs. Winger her thoughts on me having
several firearms in the house. She said, "I want my own".

Never think we can understand women. If I bought a pink gun for my lady, she would bitch me out.

If your lady loves it, that is all that matters.

It was purple or nothing.

If your lady loves it, that is all that matters.They all like a little something different lol! Heck mines addicted to pink and hello kitty lol. My buddies girl is the polar opposite and it's all black and skulls lol. Then I got another friend and she just likes a nice wooden stock and some fine blueing.

My generations gun culture is all over the place [emoji1787]

I did I tell ya she found some stickers [emoji1787]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20221226/d4dcc1636906ecb9b508fd31e163dd84.jpg

For centuries,, men seemed to think ladies shouldn't have guns etc. Yet,, at the same time,, they revered a lady called "Annie Oakley."

For about 30 years,, I've been working towards getting more ladies into shooting etc. It took a lot of time,, but the gun companies (who resisted at first,) started offering stuff just for the ladies. Including colored guns etc.

KUDOS to you for getting her this fine gun, that's all her's! I do not care what color they are,, or how they dress them up,, if it gets a lady into shooting,, I LIKE it!

Instead of "hello kitty" shouldn't it be "good bye kitty?":kidding:

I agree with Contender1, just as long as she is out shooting and having a good time.

I pulled the furniture off an AR and sprayed it purple. Handguard stock(not the tube) and grip. Easy and cheap. Looks like the cat is interested too Wolfdog.

Congratulations ! My wife of over 40 years also appreciates guns as gifts, although she prefers them blued.

My wife wants wood stocks and blued steel, period!

If I brought her a pink gun she would turn it red by beating me over the head with it (my red blood)
