A weird question on pistol finishes

Post by Seburiel »

Okay, so, my somewhat diminutive wife wants to get a bersa thunder like mine (she currently sports a Ruger LCP with the included laser sight), but she wants one that's purple (what the...?).
Is there any realistic way to accomplish this that won't damage (I'm not so worried about it's monetary value) the operation or reparability(sp?) of it?

Also, a method that won't make my wallet shriek would be a good start, too.
Thanks, in advance.

Duracoat. The starter kit is about $30 and will do 2 handguns iirc.

My wife is drooling over this pic, LOL.
Thanks CAK. :drool:
As for me, I'm thinking the ol' boomstick could use a touch-up, and so could the Thunder. ;)
Wow, my mind is abuzz with the possibilities of not having an 'average black gun'

Here are three anodized pistols. These are very popular with managers in a particular "profession."

The top one is obviously for UT exes and the bottom for TCU. Not sure about that blue... (Rice?)
