I kind of like it, too - but I've always liked 1911s with red grip panels, and AKs with red bakelite furniture also! But one thing's for sure, if you ever want to start an argument, just ask a group of gun owners what the "best looking" firearm is! On this web site, there'll be folks voting for the No. 1, and others for the SR1911, and (obviously) a bunch of revolver fans too!
