Frequently Asked Questions
Is a 38 special a good gun for a woman?
Yes, the .38 Special is an excellent choice for female shooters. The Lavender Lady’s manageable recoil, lightweight design, and compact size make it particularly suitable. The rubber grip ensures secure handling, and the revolver’s simple operation is ideal for those new to firearms.
What’s the difference between 38 special and 38 special +P?
.38 Special +P is a higher-pressure loading with more velocity and energy. While the Lavender Lady can handle occasional +P use, we recommend standard pressure rounds for regular shooting to preserve the firearm and maintain shooter comfort.

You can purchase the Lavender Lady 38 Special Revolver directly from Kansas Gunshop at kansas-gunshop.com. We handle all necessary FFL transfers and ship same-day from Wichita, KS.
How does the lavender finish hold up?
The Cerakote finish is highly durable, resistant to scratches, and maintains its color well. It’s not just paint – this is a professional-grade firearm coating that withstands regular use.
