Beautiful weapons thread. Who said tools of mass death can't be eye candy?

What are some of your favorite looking weapons? Not talking about how effective or practical they were, but which do you find the most aesthetically pleasing? Here are some of my favorite:

This is the pistol I'll be picking up shortly:
Tanfoglio/EAA "Witness Pro"

It's the perfect design for a handgun. It does everything you need, while also being sturdy as hell, and looking like a proper tool; rather than a toy.



I also have these guys.
The first one is for chopping wood (You'd be amazed at how much better than a hatchet it is), and the second is for cutting down random brush around the yard. Both of them do the jobs fantastically.

These pictures are actually from order-screens, so the actual products are slightly different, but they're close enough.

What's the name of this one?

This is a really interesting setup. That hammer looks super unique. I'm curious what the idea was behind that design.
That's the LeMat revolver. French origin I think. What's cool about it is bottom barrel is a shotgun. Switch in hammer for different firing mode. Almost like video game weapon. Pretty nuts huh?

Wikipedia says it's from New Orleans (so... kinda French).
Based on the numbers in the article, it was also particularly rare.

A 9-round cylinder.
Fired 20-gauge buckshot.
Lever-selected firing modes.
Built-in ramrod.

That's a cool-ass gun.




To stay on-topic...
Whether kitted-out, or bare, I think the M1A is the best-looking rifle ever made.

How can you not like this?

You're telling me this isn't an accurate depiction of a DSR-50 anti-materiel rifle? :)

Jokes aside, in terms of aesthetics, I do have a soft spot for the Desert Eagle as mentioned above.
If I called myself M9 and then used a M9 it wouldn't make me a M9. It would make me a girl with a gun!

M9!

It would have been cool if their hand had been a gun rather than them holding one...Or it being a part of their body.

Eh, to each their own. I like how they went about it (although the fact that they made AK-47, one of the most famous and reliable guns in history, a middling 3-star is frigging egregious). And they killed it with the 404 squad guns, especially the UMP sisters.

Haven't touched the game since AL came out. Surprised the servers are still up. (for both games lol)
