Best looking if you're behind it, scariest looking if you're in front of it!

Sorry, Kevin.
I don't believe we can accept SMG's/Machine Pistols as valid opinions in this thread.
Try again, m'kay...

That 6" Royal Blued Python is it.
Actually, the Ruger P94DAO ain't too bad from a cosmetic standpoint either.

TT-33 and CZ-52 my two favorites.

BEST LOOKING HANDGUN?

LUGER....

THE SEXIEST HANDGUN EVER MADE. Nothing else even comes close.

Posted: 8/3/2001 7:49:42 PM EDT

[#10]

My Choices:

Classic--Colt 1911 (this one is a Commander):
[img]http://albums.photopoint.com/j/View?u=1157297&a=11109695&p=52026270&Sequence=0&res=high[/img]

Old Classic--Colt SAA:
[img]http://albums.photopoint.com/j/View?u=1157297&a=11109695&p=52026280&Sequence=0&res=high[/img]

[img]http://albums.photopoint.com/j/View?u=1157297&a=11109695&p=52026292&Sequence=0&res=high[/img]

Best fitted--SIG P210:

The best looking handgun in my opinion is the Walther P38 in 9mm.

Something has to be said about that classic style. I think it has to do with the "stand out" barrel and the grip contour that does it.

For me, nothing else comes close. Everything else is just a modified 1911.

Six-inch Python and P-08 Luger.

The Walther PPK/s is the most gracefull, clean, gorgeous hand gun out there.

And the ugliest has to be any Glock. Funtional yes, pretty no.

One of the finest pistols this side of the 1911.

I am quite fond of several handguns, but I think the Freedom Arms Revolvers are one of the finer pieces of work available today.

Smith&Wesson Model 19 Snubnose.

Personally, love the 92F, and love the Browning HP, but for some reason, what catches my eye, is a GI M1911A1 .45! That has always impressed me, since I was a kid. I also love the M1 Garand, and the M1 Tommygun too. Traditional weapons with historic signifgance.

Duty wise, I usse the HP (L9A1) when issued (rare), normally I got a F88SA1 Austeyr rifle. A Pistols is a sniper lure.

Something about 1911's just absolutely stir me in my loins.........
I carry a Kimber Custom Stainless. Not only
does it shoot exceptionally good but dern it
just looooooooooooooooooooooks good!
The lines, the form, the grip angle, the
rounded night sights, the Hogue grips, even down
to the Wilson 8 rders with extended pad sticking
out the bottom just makes me puuuuuuuuuuuuuur.
Truly the 1911's were made for those who dang
near have a love affair with their pistolas.

Was always fond of the English old style revolvers from a purely aesthetic point of view.
Webleys and Adams revolvers seem kind of artistic. Kind of a very elegant combination of form and function for something thats designed to knock holes in things. Kind of ironic in a way.
Now 1911's and Glocks are just to the point, designed around simplicity for a specific purpose, purely a beauty of function.

I like them all, and it is hard just to pick one.

I got to go with the following:

1- Colt Python 6" Blue
2- Beretta 92FS Stainless
3- Browning Hi-Power
4- 1911
5- Walther PPK

Colt SAA in blue/case hardened w/Ivory grips.
Colt Python 4" blue. These guns have been imititated, but can't beat the real thing.

In my mind, definetly the Calico M-950/Liberty III. The things are just mean looking! That and you gotta love 50 rounds a magazine [:D]

Not necessarily in order:

Walther P99
Sig P230
Beretta 70S
Colt Woodsman

Without a doubt...the German Luger with long barrel.

As one person once commented on the Luger: "The most beautiful killing machine ever made."

If the SP89 can be considered a pistol, so can the MP5K. [uzi]

My second submission is a glock with NRA engraved on the slide.

Now that's beauty!

Posted: 8/6/2001 1:19:09 PM EDT

The correct answer still is the large frame S&W model 29, 44 mag, blued, 8" barrel, sorry I still don't have a pic.

That's two for the modern CZ. I had a chance to see the 97B at Krausewerks. Looks really good. Here in CA you only get 10 so you have to make them count. Any thoughts from owners of 10 rd. .45's such as the CZ, Glock, etc?
