The gun, with the word ‘Reason” printed onto its barrel

Brittney, Brittney, Brittney... that's called a "slide", not a barrel.

As a 1911 collector, I think it's kind of... ugly.

But I know there's always a niche.

I’ll second that. Sticking to my old original blued Colt. Also looks like it would shred your fingers.

I’m a 10mm fan-boy. Never really like 1911’s.

With two, now three, exceptions.

I have always loved the lines of a GI 1911 or 1911A1. Most commercial variants and copies are also aesthetically pleasing, but some of the more recent versions have been altered a little too much for the sake of altering, IMHO.

This thing, however, looks like it fell out of the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down before it came to rest in a murky puddle of hideousness.

If George Patton were alive today, he’d say that only a pimp from a New Orleans whorehouse would carry a fancy printed pistol.

I kinda like it. There's no accounting for taste. Especially mine.
