I founded TFB in 2007 and over 10 years worked tirelessly, with the help of my team, to build it up into the largest gun blog online. I retired as Editor in Chief in 2017. During my decade at TFB I was fortunate to work with the most amazing talented writers and genuinely good people!

slak's comment, ftw!
I love bright colours, it doesnt make a gun any less lethal and puts the wind up the anti gunners. My pink wrap grips on my 1911 make fellow shooters want to puke. No one will steal it they say. I am not in the habit or business of hunting men, so i fail see the need for cheap looking black firearms.
Target shooters say at 500 yards if you can see their bright shiny stocks then you are mistaking the muzzle flash for reflection. More colours. Remember those gold plated Stirling sub guns? Ruby and sapphire sights didnt make them less usable
