I don't know if they have a purple one in stock but All American Armory in Bow carries SCCY. They are cheaper but a little bulkier than an LC9. I have heard good reviews from a couple of people I know that have bought them.

Help a guy out here :chuckle:

Just want to say; that's great. I wish my wife was that interested in carrying a gun.
If my wife came to me today and told me she wanted a certain gun in whatever color. There is nothing that could stop me other than supply from getting it for her before Monday.
I would go any where I could drive in this state to get it for her.

Because I love guns, and my wife. :tup: :chuckle:

Skagit Arms?
Or the pro shop at the Burlington Shooting Range. ????

Post by: h20hunter on December 04, 2015, 07:48:21 AM: And the problem is.....????

Was shooting a fun shoot years back. Bowling pins and what not. The little girl ( :chuckle: ) shooting before me had butterfly stickers on the slide of her Glock. Yes, I snickered under my breath knowing my Kimber was a far better gun and not adorned with silly girly stickers. Yeah, she just SMOKED the course and I shot more 2x4 than I did pins. She was sponsored by Glock and one smooth shooter. That shut me up forever about "girly" guns.

Post by: grundy53 on December 04, 2015, 08:08:59 AM: I would recommend the LC9s over the LC9. I have one and really like it.

I'm 100% with Ghosthunter on this. I'd be running off to the gunshop, and then running her down to the SO to get her CPL

Post by: gilroym on December 04, 2015, 05:03:16 PM: When I bought my wife a carry it was between the LC9 and the Beretta Nano ended up finding the Nano first and she loves it. Still palling on getting it coated purple I'm in no rush she still carries it.

Post by: Utah on December 04, 2015, 06:21:42 PM: Rumor has it that SCCY is coming out with a .380 in 2016. Most likely another reliable double stack just as accurate as its big brother. I'll buy one as soon as I see one. I bought mine from a Member here. Best $275 I ever spent. Pushing 2500rds now without a single problem. I'd buy one anyday for my wife or daughter and never worry about it not being able to save or protect them from harm.

I wouldn't own another Kahr if you gave it to me.

Post by: Gamehunter034 on December 07, 2015, 03:04:53 AM: Bought my wife one last yr after selling her black one. She loves it and carries it every day! Nice shooting gun little long on the trigger pull otherwise comfortable in my opinion.

I may be mistaking, but I believe they cured most the trigger issues when they introduced the LC9S, the new striker fired model.
