I have no problem with customizing a gun, making it girly, doing what the customer wants. However, that looks like a toy. Orange and red are just as bad as pink or purple.

I think cerakote, may be the most durable finish out there. I do not how ever agree with pink, blue, orange, etc. Guns should never look like toys, and toys should never look like guns. My $.02...

They look great! I bet you could really make some money if you learned to do some tooling on them. My only suggestion, you already hit. Work on the stitching, and if it were mine, I would like to...
