What is your ugliest gun??

[Narragansett]

Model 12( around 73). the clylinder needs a week in Naval jelly. Got rust in 2 charge holes. No idea why I bought it, but well under 200.00. Got it last week. A winter project of sorts. LOL, grips are original Best part of gun), but metal discs rusted bad. But, believe it or not, the gun is sound

A functional firearm with serious aesthetics problems? Probably my Remington New Army .44 percussion revolver, manufactured August 1864 for delivery to the Union Army during the US Civil War. Practically no finish remaining but it still shoots just fine.

Really, it is so ugly that it is pretty cool!

The finish on my .38/44 Heavy Duty would put a "**** under your nose" look on most faces here, but it's one of my favorites, bought for a fair price

I don't see any ugly guns here. Sorry. Maybe you attached the wrong photos?

I can't post pics but I messed up and ordered some olive colored VZ grips for my 10mm Ruger SR 1911. The combination of a stainless bead blasted finish, black controls and these olive green grips is horrible. A picture of it would cause your eyes to disintegrate anyway.

(edit: added pics and yes, I know it's loaded (with vintage Remington 158 grain round nose lead . . . ))

You're kidding right ?? I'd take that "ugly" gun off your hands any time.

I know, I know. I just get jealous when I see those pics of the pristine blue finish on vintage Outdoorsman and Heavy Duty pistols that show up from time to time. Plus, it really is my ugliest gun . . .

My AR in 9mm w/Colt mags.

ARs are ugly to start with. That skinny mag sticking out makes it uglier.

It's a lot of fun to shoot, though!

Runner up would be my Kel-Tec P-3AT. The gun itself isn't too bad, but I wear it in a cheap UM nylon holster when I run. Even though I wipe it down afterwards, the sweat over the years has taken it's toll, especially up near the muzzle. It has an orange/rust color. I'd hate to not have one though.

Ugliest gun?? It's so hard to choose as I have any number of them.


How about "Most worn out"? (Honest wear, but still functions....)

Here's my entry for "Most mistreated"

And, finally, "Just plain ugly from birth" (I imagine the designer was slapped by the machinist that made the first one...)

Ok, it IS a K32, but it is my ugliest handgun.

A KCPD registered magnum don't know how many times it has been refinished.

I won't own an ugly gun. One of the reasons why there aren't any Glocks in my safe.

 

[stu1ritter]

Would have to be my Model 1902 1st Change Target. As you can see from the photo's it has "patina".

My ugliest gun would be my Glock. Not bashing Glocks, just think they aren't pleasing to the eye. Second runner up would be my professionally butchered Victory model - my dad's off duty gun.

My great uncle's Marlin with Wichester barrel. He was quite the outdoorsman and Army cavalry veteran chasing Poncho Villa with Pershing. I inherited it from my father. I had a gun smith clean it and do some repairs. It shoots fine. I hope whomever I pass it down to, keeps it.

Deadin wins.

My 1954 Colt 357 is one ugly duck. Almost no finish left and the grips while are as ugly as the gun are actually quite comfortable. It goes to the range regularly. Mostly wadcutters but has been fed a diet of magnums through the years. Really likes cast bullets. Action is a smooth as they come and lockup is as tight as day it was new. When I rescued it from a pawn shop, it actually had spider webs in the cylinders. Action was so gummed up it took several soakings in "Reds" to get it clean. Yes, I know it doesn't have extractor rod cap. I have one, Just haven't put it on. Was sitting in the case and owner said to make an offer. I offered $200 and he whipped out the paperwork so quick I think he would gave taken almost anything. I'm sure he felt like he hit a homerun but I'm the one who got the bargain

It would seem that "ugliest" as defined here is a gun with some wear and tear that has seen better days.

If you want to define "ugliest" in terms of styling then that would have to be my Ruger LCR .38spl+P. with 2" barrel. But you know, it's odd styling and quirkiness has grown on me after a while so I don't really view it as ugly anymore.

However, I think the versions with the longer barrels are MUCH uglier then the snubbies.

 

[Echo40]

That would be my Taurus Judge Magnum, I suppose...

Although I think it looks more cool than ugly.
