My neighbor has a pink framed Walther PK380 that he had bought for his ex to shoot. She's out of the picture and he'd prefer to not have a pink gun. Can you buy just the plastic grip frame separately for those pistols? If not, suggestions for dying or coating the polymer frame a different color?

Mike, I bet you could just buy some dye and color the frame. Or just embrace the Pink big fella.

No seriously it'a my neighbor's gun. Every time I show my wife a pink gun at the gun shows she says "gay!" I saw the advice about shoe dye. Just hoping he might be able to buy a replacement frame in case that didn't work out.

Any coating is just that, a coating. The polymer is pink to the bone.

People have successfully used Rit dye to color their AR mags. No risk of flaking.. this is probably your best bet. https://www.brownells.com/GunTech/Rit-D ... ?lid=17238

Is he opposed to selling it? That seems a lot easier than trying to change the color.
