What’s the Most Beautiful Handgun Ever Made?

[Bowman78]

Only one can be it!!!!

1911 bar none!!!!!

Glock. It may not be shiney, it may not have wood detailing, or intricate engraving, but there is a raw beauty in its simplicity. The hard edges meeting the soft contours... its a work of art.

And unlike most works of art, its within just about everyone's budget.

(Though, I do agree with the duling pistols. Those are always damn fine)

Browning Hi-Power gets my vote.

I have always loved the look of a blue HK P7M8 with Nill Grips..... It is just so sexy in a "this is what James Bond should have carried" sort of way....

Beretta 92 inox, Blued Colt Python

 

[Plinkuh]

Seriously, I'm not just jumping on the bandwagon here...but, my choice is the 1911. Undoubtedly.

Most Beautiful Handgun Ever -- Guns & Ammo

Is this list suppose to be the most beautiful handgun ever made or the oldest handguns ever made?

Those guns don't do a thing for me.

Colt 1911

I have 2 of the 5 they claim as the most beautiful pistols. I have to add in on the 1911 vote. I'd also have to say I prefer the Walther PPK over the pocket pistol they chose.

 

[Sylvain]

Glock.
Simple and reliable, that's beauty for a gun in my opinion.
If you want to talk about the look only im sure you can find beautiful guns engraved by hand but that's not something you get from the factory.

 

[Splix]

I'm going to go with any long-slide stainless 1911, or a nice S&W 500

 

[1911 mike]

Of all the handguns ever made? The 1911! IT'S A NO BRAINER...........

[MrSmitty]

I have to agree with the 1860.... beautiful lines, but they missed the S&W K frame revolvers fantastic lines!

 

[Hookfish]

Yeah, it is hard to believe that the 1911 was not mentioned in that article. It would certainly get my vote.

I have to agree with the 1860.... beautiful lines, but they missed the S&W K frame revolvers fantastic lines!

Excellent point as well...it is much like the 1911 in that it is the benchmark that modern revolvers strive to achieve.

 

[pierce195]

I would have to place a vote for the 2011 frame.

 

[snapping turtle]

Not a single mention of these.

Lots of these mentioned mine is not shiney but nice,

i think these are pretty better than some old smoke pole.

this one is prettier than the buckmark but the buckmark shoots better.

And the one i don;t shoot much,
