    Default Charterarms Pink lady?

    I am thinking possibly one of them for my wife.
    What can I say, she likes pink gun.
    Ofcourse, i can already imagin how much shit I'm gonna get from my gunshop monkeys when I go and ask them to order me a "Pink lady"!



    Anyhow, I'm slightly concerend of recoil, being weigh only 12oz., and its DA trigger pull.
    How are they as far as recoil and DA trigger pull goes?

    I have the same pistol, only in the "gold" variety. The Double action trigger while heavy is very clean, and very smooth with no grittyness to it. In single action it's a dream.

    Recoil sensitivity varies per user, but I feel it's tame. If recoil is a major concern federal makes a low recoil round for it.

    I'm selling mine currently because I miss having a semi auto - but I wouldnt hesitate to recommend one.

    Seeing as you're worried about the ribbing you might get when you order a Pink Lady, let me tell you a story. My sisters boyfriend carries a .380 of some sort. I don't know what make or model.

    Anyway, he was pulled over for something and the cop found out he was carrying and asked to see where the gun was. So he shows the cop, but leaves it in place, and the cop looks at him and says "my wife has the same gun but I got her some pink grips for it."

    So don't feel bad. You're just ordering your wife a gun. My sisters boyfriend carries a girly gun (according to the cop anyway )

    Hella gimmicky. Doesn't mean your woman won't like it.

    Didn't you have really good results with your gold version Kaos? I thought you posted a bunch of targets and were really happy with this pistol? (At the time)

    Is that price tag for the pink gun worth getting your fiance into shooting? Think about the effect it could have. Less chance of you getting in trouble for buying guns later. Course she could be buying her own at the same time. Lol

    Yea Id pay it in a heartbeat if we were out and she actually wanted it. It was the initial shock of her seeing the "pink gun" that made her say I want it. But we have talked about it and I do believe when both her and I feel shes ready, that will be one gun purchase Id be excited to make!!!

    Hey life is short , if your wife likes the gun get it for her and have fun, if the lightweight is a problem recoil wise get some light .38 ammo, light recoiling i mean, the blazer 158 grn flatpoint is pretty light , but will do some damage if she has to use it for SD
