View Full Version : Ugliest Gun I ever bought.
Just picked up my Beretta factory BLEM from Turners today and just can't take it. They said the finish on the slide and frame were off but dang. Well I will let you be the judge.

Is that a fingerprint near the muzzle, or is that discoloration in the finish?
I opened this thread expecting to see a hi-point...
It dose not look to bad to me. It is hard to tell from that picture.
How much did you save?

ew... if you want op i can take it off your hands.. ill cover dros.
Just in case you were wondering it was 469$ brand new. And yes I was joking it might be one of the best deals I found in a long time. ;):D

DROSed mine from Turners today. I could not tell the difference and I must have gotten lucky. Mine looked great and can't beat the price. After a few times in the desert it won't matter for me. I bought it as a tack driver whereas I plan to use it and see how much it can take. We will find it if it goes boom in a couple weeks.

Touche, ArtP. You got me. Funny..... I agree. Couldn't pass this one up.
JJLINC yeah I had to take a flashlight and shine on it to tell the difference. Super happy with it can't wait to get to the range.

I'm not one for beating up a gun intentionally, oh because of some supposed machismo reason you are supposed to do so merely because that's what's done at Thunder Ranch, but I would not think twice about buying a gun that's been cosmetically beat up if it saves me a good deal on the regular asking price.
Good job!

Looks beautiful to me!
Great price. I've got a 92G-SD in jail, paid well over 2x that price...

You got a deal on a great weapon so use it as a whipping boy gun, where you train with it, throw it in the dirt and put some character on it, shoot the bastard until its basically a smooth bore!
Maybe its the fact that many of the guns I was issued looked like hell, that makes me LOVE guns that have some wear. Not a fan of pretty oiled up photo guns.

I was about to post Glock. But hey someone said hi-point.
;):D
That's a great price for a great gun OP, if I didn't have an SA in jail I would have jumped on one too, heck I may even get an SS model when my 1 in 30 has expired .

you're right that is an ugly handgun...
but if you keep shooting it you'll get over it
and someday I'll learn to think of it as beautiful.

The pic looks fine. The guns were advertised as factory blemish and it was a very good price. Unless there is something mechanically wrong with it, that gun is good to go.

Once you own a Kris, then & only then can you say you own the ugliest gun.

Didn't read the thread, but fixed this post.
Good buy on the Beretta, OP.

You are so lucky. I was a day late and a dollar short. Enjoy the M9 I had one that I foolishly sold during a divorce. :oji:

it's always a great feeling to replace one that got away. by all means, replace your Beretta.

Nice gun OP, most people wont be able to tell the difference or will think it's normal. :D
The only time that the finish is off and it bothers me is when the finish is supposed to be black and it has a purple-ish color. :puke:

I was thinking of something that was actually hideous. I bet OP would also find Cindy Crawford hideous because she has a beauty mark. :P

That's beautiful, very far from ugly.

I think the mere presence of that gun would kill someone before the actual bullet
Cosmetic flaws are unimportant. You got a good deal there.
