How about some Art Deco!!!!!!!!!! Glad to see one other poster give some respect to the old Savages.

Not Art Deco, but here is a Hi Standard Model B for rimfire fans, seeing as how the Colt Match Woodsman has already been posted.

I've always thought the c/96 Mausers with the 6 round magazines were the most aesthetically pleasing pistols I've ever seen.

I also like the Sig X-Five, which is similar in purpose.

My guns r like children, I don't love one more than the other but they all have their own special qualitys.


until tonight i have not seen or heard of a L.W. Seecamp but for some reason I can't take my eyes of it. its sooooo intriging
 
Any 1911 from a quality maker with:

No front cocking serrations
No billboard lettering
Not dehorned to hell with that soap bar look.
No wrap around rubber and/or punisher grips
A single color theme on slide and frame, no two tone for me
Given to me as a gift :cool:
 
I've always liked the looks of the Beretta 92FS, SIG P220 Match stainless, and of course #1 would have to be a nice custom 1911. I think the purdiest 1911 would be a Stainless steel one with rear GI serrations, none in front. It'd have extended controls, commander style hammer, hi-ride beavertail, lowered and flared ejection port, etc, etc.... Either spalted or bird's eye maple grips...maybe ivory and the front strap and mainspring housing would be stippled, not checkered. That's what I drool over.
 
I have a fascination with my M1935A
