Wife took the flier we picked up at the Jan gun show to work with her.  Go to Cliff's Guns, Reloading and Safes and ask for Stephanie.  She'll square you away!

I happened to win one of those pink guns last year (gave it to a female contenstant as a gift) but I did shoot it a few times later on and it is not a bad little .38, just didn't think it would look right on my hip!

Carracer,
WHERE DID YOU GET THAT AND HOW MUCH DO YOU WANT FOR IT?!?!?  My mom has a pink MandP, but this cute little thing would have her squealing like a pig going down a waterslide.
Adios,

Got it from Robert at RK Gunsmithing in Nampa off Midland Blvd.  I think they have another one.  I had them get the engraving done for me.
Gave it to my wife after she got home from bowling last night.  First I showed her the pics here in this thread and asked her if she liked it.  Didn't tell her it was hers until she recognized my user name then made her look for it.  She absolutely loves it!

You mean you want a gun at all, so you can go shooting with us, and not have to wait your turn to use mine.  ;D

I wouldn't be caught dead with a pink weapon, but if I can afford the shoot by then I will be there.

Just trying to keep me broke aren't you. I will have my Lasik procedure done by then, which should allow me to were the safety goggles/glasses without all the pain. (at least this is what we are hoping for) Lasik is much more expensive then I thought, so I could be very broke that month.

I am not entirely sure what you mean by getting a sponsor, but I do not have one. I am excited to try and go though.

I think that would be someone else to pay your entry fee in exchange for a little advertisement or promotion of their business.  Like wearing their tshirt, handing out bus. cards etc.

Ask your boss if the company will sponsor you.  It's not like the entry fee is that much.  You might get them to pay for ammo too.  ;)
