Help me think of a cool gun tattoo

[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Help me think of a cool gun tattoo

Posted: 12/16/2009 10:11:38 AM EDT

I know it's not everyone's thing but I'm due for another tattoo. I was thinking of getting something gun related but I don't want it to be obvious, I want something obscure that a gun nut would look at and go, "That's cool" but everyone else would look at and go "WTF is that?"

I was thinking AR-15 bolt face but I'm looking for other ideas.

A buddy of mine got the AR bolt face tattooed on his calf.

I like it, but if you weren't into guns you would just think its a cool looking design.

Sublte and discreet

ETA: FIRST BITCHES!

I'm all for getting ideas from others but you actually want GD to come up with art work that will be on your body forever?
I'm not into ink, but alot of my friends are and every one has significant meaning to them and where they were "in life" when they had it done.

Where are you in your journey, and what would mean the most to you right now? Can you tolerate that picture on you forever?
I've seen some really good work that actually made me think of doing it but what I thought was "spot on" 10 years ago seems retarded to me now.

Choose wisely and use a good artist - that shit stays with you for ever.
Good luck in your search.

Most knucklehead tattoo "artists" can't get the lines right and the gun looks retarded.

the babies are the tattoo fans.

i personally think tatooing is the corniest, most foolish youth culture fad in world history.

the average tatoo is fucking awful, stupid in concept and mediocre in execution

they look absolutely horrible on women, those tramp stamps virtually ruin a girl's looks. A big black corny splotch

the above is my honest opinion, which for some reason offends the living shit out of the tattoo crowd. i could never figure out why, since part of the poser-ish tattoo mystique is distancing yourself from the "squares".

ETA -

tattooing is truly a fad. when i was 20, only sailors, bikers and trampy women got tattoos. now i see businessmen and accountants walking around NYC with tattoos. that's a fashion statement. what is the point of fashion? to confer a special status on the wearer of the fashion. nothing more.

Friend, I thought tattoos were sort of cool until they became a youth fad.

My generation had lacoste shirts and penny loafers and MTV.

You guys have tragically corny faux-tough ink being sported by accountants and lawyers.

The difference is, I didn't have to pay a doctor $10,000 to burn the Spandau Ballet hairdo off my head. just got a $10 haircut.

I dig it. I get it. I'm not doing this to try an impress anyone or convince anyone I'm somehow more hard ass than I am. I'm doing this because I want to. My mother is an artist. I had her design me a tattoo. I'll never regret that. Ever.

If you hate tattoos this much why did you come into a thread about them?

are you kidding? tattoos are the best topic on arfcom

anyway, If i was going to get a tattoo, it would be a beautiful work of art performed by a master artist, and not something suggested to me on a website.

what's worth doing is worth doing well
