Yes, Glock has shown us that a gun doesn't need to be purty to work well. But then, I've never owned a Glock, nor would I ever buy one. I'd rather have a Beretta 92 or a Smith & Wesson 659. Both guns are beauties, IMO, as are the old Gold Cups.
I wouldn't own any gun I wouldn't feel good about engraving. And I just can't imagine an engraved Glock.
Timbokhan, Sure the DSA gun is ugly, but then again it looks like something Ruger would be responsible for! Now if only Ol' Bill could be consulted via sayonce to mount the ever crapulent Zytel stock to it thus guaranteeing that it'll not only hurt to shoot but it'll look bad doing it!
Kind of like Vogon spaceships. Uglier things have been reported, but not by reliable witnesses.
Donning Nomex skivvies and ducking under the desk...

PS - Add the Nagant revolver to the list, I guess, but at least it looks that way because of how it works. It has to be ugly. The other two are ugly by choice.
That is a Steyr SPP. B&T have the rights to build it. Other than a new top half[which fits the Steyr], and new mags....it's basicly the same exact pistol. I've had 2 SPP's, and with a red-dot sight.....very fun, accurate, and lightweight. It probably weighs about a third of a SP89, and half the size. It also is of European quality. Austrian/Swiss. Unless you've tried it...it's stupid to criticize something of it's type.
The second model Husqvarna pistol. the first was a licensed copy of the Browning, looked nice, the second model was a shocker, looked awful, cracked slides every 500 rounds or so.
The really ugliest pistol was the one developed in the 60s that fired fleshettes, it was realllllllll homley!
I've looked down the barrel of a model 10 twice at work with 38x125Gn Hps loaded and a careless colleague, and boy that looked ugly!
