[Rubicon37s]

She was looking at the Taurus PT92 however they no longer sell them

Thanks for the advise

Browning Hi-Power. Yeah. or converted 1911. c'mon.

Cool wife.

Think she'll do an Emma Peel and use it as a mirror to touch up her lipstick?

A 1911 would work very well for that!

There was a shiny Tokarev TT33 in 9mm in the EE a few days ago...

Thats a lot handier and more fun than a pearl necklace, I'd say get it for her.

You can get a thousand grips for 1911, it's a cottage industry

Do you know what General Patton had to say about pearl handled pistols?

"Pearl handles are for pimps!"

(Some fool had referred to the grips on his Colt SAA as pearl ... and they were ivory

BTW, I totally agree with the earlier recommendation of a Browning Hi-Power ... absolutely what she wants and from the Browning shop with full factory warranty. And they've been doing it for years.

Gaddafi's gold-plated Hi-Power was probably from the same shop.

(For all the good it did at the end ... )

9mm 1911 something ###y and silver or chrome. It will get attention at the range I bet

My wife wants to buy me this revolver for Chirstmas.

You've obviously never given his wife a pearl necklace. ;-)

Polished Stainless CZ 75 is one of the nicest out there.

I would caution against buying a .40 SW for the wife. Far too snappy even in a fullsize steel frame, at least according to my wife, and she can shoot.

Turkish 92f or Beretta 92f and ivory grips.

 

[StrikerSW]

I also would go CZ 75, they make a nice nickel finish, and CZ will likely fit very nicely in her hands.

Depends...

In SA there will likely not be any issues, but the DA first pull is a little long for smaller hands.

But the nickel is not polished with the CZ75, it is matte and it comes with blued controls which takes away from the look IMHO.

The polished version is all stainless steel.

I prefer the CZ Rosewood grips, but I am sure you could find some in mother of pearl. Go synthetic though as real stuff is very brittle.

As a woman I felt the same way. Check out the SAM's at Wolverine Supplies. I got mine there and they are great. I was going to get the stainless 1911 9mm, but all my others are stainless. These are my girly 9mm's.

After Christmas I would like to get a SAM Thunderbolt .45 Stainless V2.
Girls like pretty, pink, shiny things, that go boom.
