I've seen a lot worse, that's actually not too bad.

I do wish that whoever used this Colt as their practice piece when they were learning to engrave would realize that that's why God invented Springfields and Rock Islands.

ugly, yes. Noteworthy... hardly

We have had fucking orange 1911s and my favorite was that Dungeons & Dragons model with the knight and castle engraved and some silver figurine affixed to the slide like a hood ornament. From practical aesthetics it's hideous, but it's hardly an entry for the hall of shame.

I just can't get passed the red glass ruby thingies he put in there; what is that? Samuel Colt meets Swarovski? WTF?!

I'll never understand some people's compulsion with decorating guns.


I can't think of a more pointless exercise.


Nothing should be as direct, businesslike, and to the point as a WEAPON.

Every great warrior culture throughout history has decorated their weapons, in one form or another.  The beauty of a finely crafted weapon with decorations done by a true artist.. be it a Japanese Sword... or a suit of armor... or a Browning Hipower with a master's engraving on the slide, cannot be denied.



The problem here is that this gun was ruined by someone with little skill.
