    Nope. Bought my wife a pink pistol for Christmas and did some research. She’s a legal alien, perfectly good to own a weapon.

    Funny notes:

    I had NO idea how much Filipinos are into 1911 pistols! (The classic Colt .45 style.) I have found my people. I actually have one made in the Philippines, Rock Island Armory, .22WMR.

    When I first met my wife I sent her a text about loving the 1911 and how entwined it was with the history of her country. She didn’t respond for a bit, thought I blew it.

    The gun I linked is some badass bang for the buck (not stumping for that particular vendor). Friend told me how much he loved his, now I get it. If I had some folding money, I’d get the olive version.
