It just goes to show how blindly irrational the Glock-hate thing has become for some folks. Get over it,already

Someone listed the 1911. Should I get all offended too, or just chalk it up to different strokes?
 
Colt's are generally pleasing to the eye. This one makes you wonder what the design team was thinking:confused:

Nobody said they didn't work. We just hate the look of them. IMO some of the picks on this thread are better looking than Glocks.

If someone handed me a Glock, I'd say thanks and go shoot it. However, if a fellow gun lover came by and said "So can I see your guns?" I'd probably not bother getting the Glock out.

If someone handed me a Hi-Point, I'd go trade it for some ammo.

I hear Hi-Point is set to release their new "Quasimodo" line of pistols. They are going to market it with a new line of matching carbines called the "The Elephant Man".

Both new lines of guns will have interchangeable back straps, and other interchangeable polymer panels that serve no purpose but to make the guns more hideous, larger, and harder to transport and carry. All polymer has been checkered to enhance its ability to snag on your clothing. Both lines will come standard with a trigger made from a coat hanger and a front sight made of a broken popsicle stick. All popsicle front sights have a black line drawn on them with a sharpie to enhance target acquisition speed. Rear sights are pigeon holed into the slide and are the highly effective "Nobak" style. These sights are machined from Budweiser grade aluminum and still have the Budweiser logo.

These guns will be chambered for the popular .25 auto, .32 auto., .380 acp, and 455 Webly. The issues with feeding 455 cartridges have been solved with the new "Toilet Paper Tube" magazine and the extended "Paper Towel Tube" magazine that comes standard with The Elephant Man carbines. These magazines are guaranteed for the entire 25 minutes life of the gun, so long as the magazines are kept dry.

All of the Quasimodo and Elephant Man firearms come standard with match grade tin barrels and are guaranteed to produce 50 degrees of angle accuracy.

Ask your local distributor for more details!

Hi-Points are ugly, however with their substantial grip butt could really hurt someone when thrown accurately.
 
Sometimes I think the Whitney Wolverines are at the top of the list, but every now and then when I see a picture of one it makes me rethink that and I kind of want one...

Ignoring that one, I'd say a lot of the S&W's are pretty ugly. Sigma, Bodyguard .380.

I think Glock's are a love/hate thing (and I'm not just talking about some people love them, some people hate them.) When I look at a Glock and try to see it from a "gun I'd be proud to open carry" standpoint, I think it's absolutely hideous. But when I'm holding it in my hand and try to see it from a tactical / self defense or plinking point of view, I think they're fairly attractive.
 
I'm pretty surprised so many people put Glock at the top. Glocks are sexy, IMO.

Only to another Glock. :p

A Whitney Wolverine is firmly at the top of my wish list.
 
I used to think Glocks were ugly too. I thought the 1911's were HOT - I still think they are hot. However, after putting a bunch of rounds through my Glocks and have not one malfunction, I find myself thinking they [Glocks] look pretty good now. Heck I think my lifted Jeep Rubicon looks good but the high maintenance ladies tend to like the sports car thing. Go figure.
 
One more vote for that monstrosity shown by fivetwoseven. Shevchenko PSh-4 pistol (Ukraine) The image of that thing is burned on to my retina.
 
^ Yeah, that thing looks more like a cheese grater than a pistol. Maybe it's processor gets really hot, or something:confused:

Current Autos: Glock (and most of the other plastic ones),then HiPoint . The PHP is in the Twilight Zone; somewhere between ugly & beautiful,(I prefer the latter), but remember, the same folks make the Springfield XD(not pretty). Excuse me, but I don't understand "them what don't like" the looks of the 1911 or Whitney Wolverine. Free country. It's OK.
 
I think the Stallard even out-uglies the High Point, but only one other poster here has mentioned it.

I'm enjoying looking at these ugly guns. I don't know why.
Is that wrong of me?
