If a gun is concealed in your britches, and there is noone there to see it, is there really a gun there at all?

Here are my thoughts on the issue of colors. When I carry a gun I carry concealed, so the color is of no great consequence. When I pull a gun I want the other S.O.B. to know it's a gun and that I mean business. No pretty pinks for me. The BG will have less than a second to admire the color before he's blinded by the muzzle flash and shot, so again the color is of no great consequence. I guess I'm what you'd call a practical shooter.

I don't care because no one sees my gun anyway, so I want this one.

I think the color is irrelevant. The only thing that matters is that the BG can clearly see a large black hole looking right at him, just prior to the bright light , the bang and the tip of the projectile touching his skin before entry. That's how we roll....

Match your clothes to the color of your gun, you would be surprised how well it can hide the gun. Be like many of us women and coordinate your outfits.

And, IMO, any other color is going to affect resale value negatively unless you can find anybody else who likes the unusual color.
I find my middle age belly actually helps with AIWB. The belly kind of goes around the gun, which keeps it from printing. Sort of hard to describe, so anyone that would like me to post a picture.....
