Big Bore: Automag. Mine was a beauty to behold, but I wasn't fond of shooting it.
Medium: Browning 1910. Although I love the Colt M, the Browning, with the recoil spring around the barrel, is that much sleeker.
Small: Nothing better than a pre-war Woodsman, preferably the shorter barrel, as the adjustable front sight on the long barrel looks downright funky. The slim grip, 4 1/2" Woodsman is my favorite of all time.
It's an old Whitney Wolverine .22 I picked up at a local shop a while back. I got lucky; I wasn't looking for a .22 that day. I totally recommend one for anyone liking semi-auto .22 pistols. It never jams and it eats any ammo you feed it. It's accurate like crazy and the trigger is to die for. Out of the box, it shoots as well or better than any other I've shot. Sorry to all you Ruger and Buckmark folks but this one kicks butt. If you can pick one up, do so. It's the best.
I really like the looks of the Kahr pistols as well, but my favorite (right now) is the Sig Sauer P226 X-5. Even with the black plastic grips it looks great, but the Nills wood grips really make it beautiful.
I agree with the poster on the first page who said the Golden Desert Eagle. That strap is gorgeous. Reminds me of "The Golden Gun" from the goldeneye james bond game on N64.
My SA Professional. This is the FBI model built by hand for the FBI HRT. No front serrations and no rails. Its the first series. Heavy slide rails, Nolan barrel and the gun that was chosen out of many customs as the FBI carry gun.

I actually saw one at a local gun shop. Very... interesting. The staff there told me that it is a very durable titanium coating, similar to what they put on drill bits. Guess it would be a great carry gun that way, if that's your style.
For pure beauty I'd have to vote for the Luger. (BTW, it was developed a quarter century before the Nazis came to power - the Nazis actually replaced it with the P38, a much more rugged and battlefield-reliable weapon, although the Luger was used in great numbers during WWII simply because there were a lot of 'em around.)
But only as a looker. If the question is which gun I'd swoon over to have and use in the gravest extreme, I'd have to vote for a Glock.
