Bet those golden gun don’t fire many rounds. Gold’s pretty easy to melt, right?

Those are pretty awesome to display but I’d never want to fire one.

Just find an open minded Kay’s Jewelers at your local mall.

I saw that same episode on Netflix. Not my style and wouldn’t think to add bling to a firearm even if I had the money, but still thought it was an interesting custom.

Oh, don’t get me wrong. I’d shoot one, too, although I’d be afraid to get all that gold dirty and messed up. And if it were offered to me as a gift, I’d gladly take it. I just wouldn’t spend my own money on something like that. Not that I don’t foolishly spend money on other unnecessary stuff.

Oh, and for those who don’t read Spanish, the inscription on the gold .38 Super bidding that Robert posted above can be translated as “God forgives, I don’t.”

If you don’t want a golden gun made for a drug lord or dictator you could always get one damascene.
They are very attractive and if you clean them gently they can still be shooters.
