To those who wonder why a woman may need variety in her concealed weapons choices, I ask you this: Why do women need colored/patterned/etc. underwear?

No challenge to design one for those old fashioned nun outfits - any howitzer as long as it comes in basic black and white

A Derringer in matching color for the bikini perhaps?

personally, I need 5...

The long range rifle that can put in one inch groups at 300 yards, the .22 for varmints and what not, The shotgun for birds and rabbits, the big 40 mag for when I mean bussiness, and the little pocket gun for when I don't want anybody to know.

On the slightly more serious side, anybody catch the LA cop on NPR today? Funny how it is ok for HIM to have a gun in his house with which to protect himself, but not us.

1. No one is ever going to see the color of your weapon unless you pull it out, and if you pull it out you better be prepared to use it, at which point, its color is perhaps the least relevant topic in the universe.

2. Form follows function. Perhaps this presents Ms. McArdle with the opportunity to buy a new, bigger handbag. May I suggest Coach Club?

Nah, I need four. One for concealed carry, one for the car/nightstand (bigger, more ammo), a shotgun for the safe room, and a semi-automatic rifle as an insurance policy against riots, post-hurricane looting, civil war or invasion.

Oh &^%$ me; McArdle's comment was apparently earnest.

I think I'll go take a little lie down now.

A woman, though, would need one of every variety, including several black handguns that, to an untrained male eye, look exactly the same.

Coffee through the nose. I thank you.

OK, to spend entirely too much brain power on this concept, why does it matter? Unless you're carrying it unconcealed, you're just paying extra for invisible fashion, since it otherwise rides inside your purse or under your shirt or wherever, right? And if you're putting it to use, "Ohh, that's so stylish" is not high on the list of reactions I'd want, but then, I'm not female. Would you buy a color-coordinated, Christian Dior tampon case?

"It’s well documented that most men need just two guns"

I can attest that this is not the case. Two just can't get the job done.
