Guns you won't buy due to looks alone

[00BlasterResto]

.... I like berettas and sigs. theres a few others like 1911's but I find almost everything else to be goofy, boxy, chinsey or just corny looking.

Not sure if this one was mentioned, but it may be the ugliest gun in history.

Olympic Arms Whitney Wolverine. See for yourself:

the xdms i think are pretty ugly

 

[Trickpony]

I'm personally not a fan of the following guns!!! HK handguns, SKS variants, mausers, Black powder guns (all of em), single shot break open shotty's, Hi Points, Kel-Tec's, and I'm sure there are others but I'm suffering temporary loss of memory...

I like to think of guns as like your children. As long as they are yours, they are never ugly. It's the other peoples guns that are the ugly ones!

 

[PapaScout]

Too many ugly guns to list. I admit to being "shallow" when it comes to purchasing a firearm. If I don't like the looks I won't buy it.

 

[printcraft]

Can't wrap my mind around the Desert Eagle at all.

Beretta's as well, I know they are a quality firearm but I could never warm up to them.

I don't know man, that look pretty next level to me!

Japanese Type 94 in 8mm Nambu

Carcanos rank pretty high on that list for me. The actions remind me of civilian 22's. LOL Some of the WW I semiauto pistols make the list, too.

And pretty much any new plastic pistol. ;-)

 

[sparkyfender]

Can't think of any, really..............

 

[OneBadV8]

No mention of the HK P7 yet... that's so ugly I can't believe HK stamped their name on it.


Also, any Sporterized C&R gun... I absolutely hate those, unless the owner kept the original stock otherwise, not a chance.

 

[HICKMAN]

I think Hi-Points are the only guns I've seen that I wouldn't buy on looks alone.

 

[Newg]

There are no guns that I won't buy based on looks. Glocks are pretty damn ugly but I buy them because they always work. All I care is that I hear a bang for each squeeze of the trigger.

As far as the P7 goes, ask Joe from 500 Guns how he feels about the way it looks!

I'd be happy to carry that ugly thing.

REMEMBER......BEAUTY IS IN THE EYES OF THE BEHOLDER!!!

I thought it was beerholder?

 

[boogieman]

i can't believe walther hasn't been put in here...has to be as ugly as the hi point

I happen to think that my Walther P99 and P22 are beautiful. I have always liked the looks of the Walthers.

Wasn't the following quote about a P7? I love mine.

This is the weapon of a Jedi Knight. Not as clumsy or random as a blaster; an elegant weapon for a more civilized age.

 

[g00n24]

Hi-points, beretta neo's, Ruger LCR, sub-compact xd's, FN's FS2000 and SCAR: the fs2000 is not of this world, and I can't get over the stock on the SCAR's

 

[Ahgo]

I wouldn't buy Taurus "The Judge" because it is just too big and ugly, however I would love to have a chance to fire one. It's sort of like watching Joe Theisman break his leg. I didn't want him to break his leg, but I couldn't look away from the TV each time they showed it.

All semi auto pistols besides the Luger, 1911 and Hi-power leave something to be desired as far as looks.

AKs, Mosins, Lee-Enfields, and pretty much every long gun ever made in Russia look aweful. To be honest the M-16 leaves much to be desired as well. The M1 Garand, M14, Mauser family of battle rifles, and the M65 Davy Crocket are the most appealing rifles.


For those who arnt history buffs here is the M65. AKA, the sexiest rifle ever made. Although it would have been more effective with more range.
YouTube - the nuclear gun yes its a gun

As a grizzled old Chief Petty Officer once told me, "If it's ugly and it works, it ain't ugly." Of course he probably never saw an M1942 Liberator. The OSS's answer to the question "Is there such a thing as a truly ugly pistol?"
