The Rhino plays up it's blocky shape for a reason. If it didn't project some sort of " I'm different " image it might not sell as well. Those that are drawn to a low axis barrel likely are going for a interesting shape as well. The long barrel version looks like one of those serrated vented " battle " knives.
The LCR. The only thing out of proportion is the trigger guard. The large guard is there for a reason, quick access. To quote someone who knows someone that knows someone that proports to be a retired hit man. " Sometimes you don't have a half a second to save your life. " They would cut most of the trigger guard out of their guns for faster access.
The stuff from the 1800 / 1900's is keeping with the looks of the times.
To me, a gun is a tool so looks are secondary. Even thought I have guns only for PD purposes, I do have a appreciation for a really well made machine. ( A really well made ,with just a wisp of engraving, bolt action rifle would be my top pick )
There is a difference between a gun that is of poorly made and one that well made Vs that has good shape / bad.
