Discount Gun Sales has teamed up with the Susan G. Komen Foundation to offer a pink version of its popular Walther P-22 handgun in recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The Komen Foundation, which sponsors pink-ribbon walks and other events to raise money for breast cancer research, is embroiled in controversy following its decision to defund Planned Parenthood.

An undisclosed portion from the sale of each Walther P-22 “Hope Edition” will be donated to the Seattle Branch of the Susan G. Komen Foundation. The gun retails for $429.99.

The Hope Edition has “an exclusive DuraCoat Pink slide in recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness month,” according to the promotion. “Utilizing the same reliable controls and firing mechanism that has made the Walther P-22 America’s top selling handgun, the Hope Edition will be a limited production pistol offered exclusively through Discount Gun Sales.”

While I agree that the idea of a pink gun for breast cancer is really strange, I don't understand why you had to make it another right vs left bs thread. I guess some things never change

All I can say to Komen rescinding their decision is...power to the people!! It was their proactive choice to stop donating to Susan G Komen and put their donations to Planned Parenthood that, no doubt, got their attention.

Love it when a plan comes together!!

(although, I did hear it was said by Komen that they may consider not giving support to poorer women. So, while I haven't made the poor house, yet...they still lost my vote)
