I was thinking about all the different colors that the newer pistols are coming in and it got me to thinking. What color do people like for their pistols. I, myself like stainless over black.

Blacker the better.

I like the stainless, black, and the bi-tones.

I don't like chrome or as Gerard in US Marshal's says, "Nickel-plated sissy pistols."

I'll be honest I like them all, there I said It I am a gun whore.. and My name is ______... LOL

But Black matches everything!

Red, because its faster.

Basic black goes with any situation, dressy or casual.

I just got a visual of a riceboi with a red tricked out Glock with a big a** wing sight on the rear of the slide and stickers for every brand ammunition and after market part they could find plastered all over the gun .... I'm still laughing!

*whew* Seriously, I like guns in any color as long as it's black. I do have inherited pistols that are nickel and chrome. For new purchases though, I want simple, durable and lethal.

I am not really too partial to anything. My XD is dark earth, and I like that. But I also like the black, and the bitone. Then I see someone who's "customized" theirs, and I like that too!

Truth be told, I'm tempted to duracoat my next handgun in pink.
