As art, I like them. Nice commentary on glam violence. As a cultural phenomeon, it's not too far off.
Rather sexist commentary, though. I've heard a lot more men oohing and aahing over how pretty a gun is. (There, that should get the ball rolling. :D ) |

I don't find those particularly atrtractive. Even IF, and that's a big IF I wanted a designer gun i wouldn't be those, those are just tacky looking.

Sad thing is, this is a repost. It floated around here about a year ago, IIRC.

What is that flaw where you get noticed more ofter, distinctive style?
I am imagining Kramer from Seinfeld in the white feather fedora and the coat of many colors with a leopard skin AK-97. Police: Did you see the man who shot you? Victim: Yeah, he was dressed like a 1970's pimp on acid and had a pump shotgun with purple sequins and a tiger stripe fur stock. It shot rhinestones and glitter. Police: <aside> Dispatch, we're gonna need the rubber ambulance for this one. |

Wow, I can't think how people would react if I whipped out Carmela from behind my couch. :D

While these fashion statements might be a little too glam for our sensibilities, in an especially punk, especially 80's setup (rather like how I imagine Wounded Ronin runs his games), they make perfect sense. Imagine the wage slave with shoulder pads like a line backer and a foot of curly brown hair going out in every direction, skin tight pants and pink leg warmers packing that on her person as she gets ready to meet some friends at Tiffany's.

And is attacked by a horde Ninjas while she is on her way. Thank God she packed her her new fashionable gun and can overcome the threat of Ninja terror.
Too bad she wasn't aware of the Drop Bear platoon... As background music we have a mixtape with Mötley Crüe, Jon Bon Jovi and Motörhead. :rotfl: |

They've had those options pretty much since the beginning. Which makes sense, considering the reasons why Desert Eagles mostly get bought.

I really liked Carmela. So catholic looking and with so much violence potential...

Nay, she's a young, shiny battleaxe from the look of it!
Though I'm not sure she'd take that any better. ~J |

Agnes was the golden grenade with a diamond necklace, carmela is the battleaxe. Nice to see The virgin mary and baby jesus on a battleaxe as well.
