What do you think are the best LOOKING handguns out there?

What are your favorite looking handguns made, either currently or past, autoloader or revolver, etc. Name your top three or five. Atheistic, name brand, caliber, price, functionality, everything else aside… looks alone. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder!

1) Beretta 92FS
2) HK P30L
3) HK 45c

:watching:

1: Colt Python, it's just damn sexy.
2: 1911s, mainly Wilson and NightHawk, but almost every 1911 I've ever seen has been appealing except for the random hack job.
3: Hi Power
4: Sig 220 and or 226
5: CZ75B Stainless

Para Ord's LTC (I love the black with stainless fire controls)
Ruger Super Redhawk (With the longer bbl)
A long slide 1911 (They're just plain sexy..I think I have a man crush on those ..lol)
Colt Python (6" bbl adn up)
Sig Sauer P220 Elite Stainless (And it has to have those Oh so nice wood grips)

I could probably go on for days if I got to really thinking. And I'm sure someone will say something and I'll say "Damn! I should have said that!!"

Here are a few of my choices in no particular order.

1. Sig 226 Elite
2. Sig 226 X-5
3. S&W Model 41
4. Any 1911
5. HK P30L

I saw one of those X5's at the local shop this past weekend. $2,500! Too rich for my blood to even ask to hold. Beautiful gun, though.

#1: Beretta 96/92
#2: Stoeger Cougar 8000
#3: Browning Hi-Power
#4: Colt Commander .45 ACP
#5: S&W M&P 40

You might question the #2 ranking on the Cougar, but it works, all the time in any environment and is accurate as all get out. Hi-Power is a classic in a class by itself. The M&P is a Glock alike but actually fits me well. I wish mine had an external safety like those coming out now. Just me, not the weapon.

Ya those are all out of my reach right now. Bud's sells the X-5 for $2250. A little better but in that $$ range I would get a custom 1911. Then again if I had that kind of money I would probably already have the 1911.

Remember, this is based on looks alone. Nothing more, nothing less. How well they shoot and how accurate they are for you have nothing to do with it.

Bob Wright

Colt Python and Bisley Super Blackhawk Hunter, and almost any of the better 1911 clones.

When it comes to revolvers I would say that the Colt Python Elite with 4 or 6 inch barrel is the best looking. Semi-Autos are a bit harder to list, but I do like the looks of some 2011's, especially SVI's. I also like the Ruger P-series (P94 etc) and SIG's and HK's and... Well, there are just too many to mention them all.

I've said it once I've probably said it a hundred times. The grips on Bobs wheel guns are about as pretty as any I've ever seen. That's sportin' some serious gun wood.:prayer:

Here's a couple I have that I like the looks of...

I don't think so. Is that P-Diddys gun ?

I dunno but the OP wanted people to post guns for looks only.

I have been thinking about this question a lot, and finally came up an answer. I like the look of a nice blued Smith & Wesson revolver with wood grips. As this is the semi-auto forum, I guess I would have to say a blued 1911 with wood grips of some sort. I think the new roll mark 1991A1s are pretty sharp looking.
