what is it about women? the wife wants one of almost every model gun i got. the only thing is that they have to be stainless finish. what's the deal with that? does anybody else have this problem?
 
Well, I've gotten to where I prefer stainless myself, and I ain't no woman. They're just easier to take care of, and the finish doesn't rub off. :)

As for most women, they just like shiny stuff, especially when it's a rock.
 
I like stainless also, but it is not for looks. They are just easier to keep from rusting. None of my hunting guns are stainless as I am still leery of the glare.
 
yes i like shiny guns. the basic blue just don't do anything for me. but dear hubby (craig) knows that. that is why he got me a stainless springer mil spec for valentines day!
 
Just my luck--most of my guns are stainless and my wife prefers blued...
 
Let me explain something about women - They got Perogative - men don't.

Men are indecisive.

Guns - what do I know about guns and women? - I am a guy - I'm supposed to be baffled, confused and indecisive. ;)
 
Stainless are shiney, I like shiney, but from a tactical standpoint, I doubt I'll carry one...but then again.
I like the look of them both...I'm very torn on what finish to get in guns. =(
 
I love the looks of a bead-blasted 1911 with brushed flats, wood stocks and deep blueing.

However, I prefer stainless or hard chrome. I like the fact that I dont really have a finish I can screw up with a few minor scratches, which always seem to find their way onto everything.
 
The stainless shine is closer to the diamonds she also wants. ;) Mine actually likes blued better.
 
"does anyone else have this problem?" Are you joking!? I hardly see this as a problem! your wife wants to by another gun. boy i wish i had it so bad! if my wife wanted us to buy a new gun i would get it in purple if that made her happy! after all im all about making HER happy ;)
 
i like them both, for different reasons - blue for beauty - SS for practicality. some company used to advertise doing guns in black chrome. i would read the ad and my imagination would salivate. i did not have the first one done as i knew i would want them all done and have to sell my truck to pay for it. the first one i would have done would be my little Blackhawk. i will let you imagine that with some burl grips.
 
Men are indecisive.
Certainly not compared to the women that I know. I've spent too many hours of my life having this conversation:
What do you want to do today?
I dunno.
How about X?
No.
How about Y?
Nah.
How about Z?
No.
Okay, what DO you want to do?
I dunno.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!

My wife likes silver guns too.
