Xavier’s Ugly Gun Sunday have his next entry.
Ill be sure to pack one of these the next time I need to shoot my way out of a rave. Does it come with glo-sticks and a mesh tank-top?
Honestly, some of the aesthetic decisions made by gun manufacturers are just bizarre. If this finish has higher protective qualities than normal then great but if they really think anyone will go for this based on looks they are crazy.
U-G-L-Y! You ain’t got no alibi!
You ugly!
Yeah, yeah!
You ugly!
BLUUAAGHGHHHH…. That’s about the only way I could figure to type the sound of vomiting.
WHO is this designed to appeal to? I’m not sure but I don’t even think the gays would be into something that ugly. Regardless of who would use rainbow finish, who puts wood with it!?
This is designed to appeal to one single guy out there. So, sig, while you’re at it, I would like a two tone P236 with threaded barrel, night sights, melt job and high-cap mags please. Hell you’ll sell a ton more than this thing.
I gave a friend a knife that has a rainbow titanium finish,I looked at 2 dozen and one was gorgeous,2 were ok and the rest ugly.He works for a very PC company in SF and this allows him to carry a very functional piece of jewelry that does not terrify his coworkers.On a pistol…we have all seen worse but no thanks.Of course if the pistol functions flawlessly feel free to give it to me and I will deal with my feelings privately.
Actually, I think I know someone who would go for this.
Sad, but true…
yea, some Kershaw knives come with the rainbow titanium finish, i think it actually looks quite nice on the knives, not as much on the gun, but its different, and it is quite scratch resistant
Actually I think its a Novel Idea .. I LOVE IT!
most women like pink..I DO NOT.. so this is a nice trade off
The pics do no justice to the finish, i thought the same until seeing the rainbow in person. this is beautiful, get to your nearest gun shop and see for yourself. great job sig!!! ahead of the times in style and function again!!! MUST SEE IN PERSON!!!!
This gun is $599 to $639 at any store and you do have to see to believe. The pic makes it look cheezy, but it’s very cool, unique.
It’s already been said, and very true. Most of us don’t care for the recent storm of pink grips and frames, so this is a more than acceptable compromise. I’ve sold several of these to guys for their ladies and I am considering the same for mine.
Boys and Girls,
if it makes momma happy then everybodys happy. great excuse to buy your lady a gift.
also may fall into the collector category in 20 years.
Looks like excellent eye apeal for your loved one, not so alarming and scarry.
may be a collector someday.
My wife will love it, and i think it looks cool.
I guess it’s true what they say;
“Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder.”
Would I buy one for myself? Hell, no. I own several rainbow finish knives but rainbow finish on a gun? No, thanks not even if it was chambered in .45 JohnK.
Having said that, if this makes even a single person curious enough to ask about shooting or the RKBA then I’m all for it.
