Here is some of today’s gun news…
Purple Neos
Davidson’s announced they are now shipping an exclusive purple and black Beretta U22 Neos pistol. Â The new guns use purple inserts in the grip and an anodized purple finish on the gun’s top rail.
I understand that purple is not for everyone, but expanding the firearms color palette is a great way to give people a more personalized choice in arms. Â Sure, Henry Ford sold a lot of black Model T cars, but today you can get a Mustang in eight colors other than black from the factory. Â Consumers like options, and not every gun owner wants black and/or stainless.
