I like Berettas, but that is AWEFUL!

I like SIGs too but that P239 titanium rainbow gives me the gag reflex just like this.

Oh well, to each his/her own. Somebody out there just might love that thing...

The frame almost looks like it's been aged too. Has kinda a brown patina coloration to it. The grips, although nothing I'd buy, aren't an eyesore. Nope those two aspects are acceptable. However...one would have to worry a bit about the person that likes that, that, bright cheery coloration. That's just plain hideous!

I thought at first some nutjob with photoshop had run amok.

Now I realize it was some metrosexual... run amok. :D

First thing I noticed was the Pietro Beretta Made in Italy on the slide. Why the ick? Then, hey what's up with the lighting the colors look a little off. Then the full horror of it all dawned on me.:barf:

I dunno, I kinda like it. I'd want a darker slide and a smoother finish on the frame though.

I wouldn't do that to my 92F, but if I had a near junker and didn't care if it were ruined, I might give it a try. :)

Build your own for a whole lot less than $1050.

Used 92fs: $450
Color the frame in your favorite shade of pink: less than $100.

Color the frame in your favorite shade of pink: less than $100.

But it's not just any finish, it's a "Custom anodized finish". Wonder why they got rid of it... :D

Seriously, you can get a high quality frame refinish in any color you want including pink for about $75.

My guess is that the custom anodized finish on that one is really a custom Krylon job.:D
