I'm thinking about getting a powder coating gun to work on my own little car paint projects. Reason being is people charge too much to powder coat brake calipers and for that, i might as well buy my own gun and work on my stuff and maybe even make a little cash on the side working on stuff for my friends.

Anyway, I know they sell ovens specifically for powder coating, but would it be okay to use my kitchen oven to cure the parts? Sounds like it would work but I don't want my family to die from powder paint poisoning or something. Thoughts?

yea, thats definetly NOT something you do in a oven you use to cool in.
lots of toxins and bad stuff in the curing process get released into the air, and will remain in the oven once its used.

hit up your local used paper, or craigslist or whatever, and pick up a cheap used one, and throw it out in the garage or somthing.
ohh and make sure its electric.
you dont wanna be doing that in a gas oven.
