I love it, even a lady need protection only she can provide some times. The beaded gloves speak of the lady and the pistol (if real quite valuable) of her independence. Sorry I am in a mellow mood today.

Yes, the pistol is real…and since I was fresh out of gun fight captures… LOL, this was the best I could come up with!!! Thanks Byron!
