Default Tired of not getting noticed while open carrying?

Tired of thinking people think you are LE while open carrying? Call me a sucker for things odd but I couldn't help picking one of these up:

Taurus Millenium Pro 111 9mm:


You think I will get any odd looks carrying it instead of my trusty G23?

Odd looks? Maybe. You'll probably at least get more winks from guys....

Maybe that is what I need to get my wife so that she would at least think about going to the range with me. Na! That probably wouldn't work either.

I took my girlfriend to the range to shoot it and she got a few people asking her questions about it. They thought it was pretty cool. She liked shooting it but likes shooting her 22 rifle more. I am hoping that it will get her to hang out at the pistol range with me more instead of her just going straight for the 100 yard rifle range every time we go.

While the pink Taurus is technically mine (since I bought it it is registered to me in the "not a registry" gun database), I told her that if we get married I can give it to her.

Also, when I bought it, the salesmen asked me if it was for my wife or girlfriend. When I told him no...it was for me, he kind of looked at me strange. I guess men aren't supposed to buy pink guns?

That's funny. I can see myself doing the same thing, just to see the response.

Pink is apparently the new chrome when it comes to guns... go figure

Damn straight! And as evidence to back it up, I present Michele with her infamous Pink XD and me with my Pink Remington 870
