Can handguns be sexy?

My wife thinks guns can be sexy. She likes either snubbie revolvers that they used in old detective movies, or long single-actions that you see in some westerns. I think it's mostly an image thing; to her a gun is sexy because it goes with the movie role.

Personally, the closest I come to this is having an appreciation for tough handguns or sleek rifles. Maybe just I haven't seen the right gun on the right leading lady.
 
Nickel plated Beretta 85 Cheetah. Nuff' said. :cool:

Hope to own one someday. If only they made one in 9x18 Makarov, or a conversion kit.
 
Depends on who is displaying the...

Ah, what was the question again?

People can be described as sexy, things... not to me.
 
I can think of several firearms that I find aesthetically pleasing to my eye...a stainless Colt Python. A stainless Beretta 92. A Ruger Vaquero in the factory high-gloss stainless finish. The list goes on. But, I tend to be somewhat literal in my thinking. Therefore, to me, "sexy" is interpreted as "something that makes me think about and/or desire sexual intimacy". With that said, my answer to this question is: "HECK, NO!!" :eek:
 
Autos= 92 based guns, Beretta and Taurus

DA revolvers= Smith & Wesson

SA revolvers= Ruger, Colt and FA

1911's= GI/mil-spec models

All the above are sexy!
 
My wife declares some weapons to be sexy. I love when she does that because it means I can have it. That works for motorcycles too.
 
No, you're strange...

No most guns are not sexy.
I remember a scene in the popular 1980s legal drama; LA Law, where a series regular(played by Susan Dey) had a stalker or some whacko making threats. She goes into a LA area gun shop and some scum-bag "Hollywood stereotype" sales clerk shows her a stainless model Walther PPK .380acp and seeps; "Sexy, isn't it?"
Even as a young kid, that TV scene made me cringe. :(
