Sam Colt may have made men (and women) equal, Delta Whiskies and Whiskettes, but he didn’t make all firearms the same. Pick the right tool for the job and know its manual of arms before it’s needed.

A po’ man’s trifecta for WW. Maybe the 2 Lynchburg dirtbags will catch themselves a nice septic condition while under the care of Nurse Ratched. I thought it was deja vu all over again reading that one when I realized I had seen and sent it to ‘Ed from a Fox Linky at 0GOD30hrs this morning.

Colonel Colt may have not made all of his firearms the same, but I don’t recall any fugly ones he made. Per the review of the article is seems as if the Bersa is not only fugly but a POS too.

IF there is a fugly Colt out there, I’m sure that one of our miscreanted, deplorable, pony faced dog soldier ‘weeds will post us a picture.

Can you say 1903 model? I knew that you could. Actually, other than the Woodsman and 1911 variants, most Colts are as unattractive as the Tupperware guns.

Since when has any gun resembling the PP/PPK been considered fugly? Lemme guess, you think Ms. Zeta-Jones was merely sorta attractive?

Will say the reviewer was right about the CC sights, but damning an entire line due to one variant is cheesy. Have had 3 Thunder variants, including a CC, and all were dead reliable. Makes my experience 3X the reviewer’s. His comment about the safety is BS… it is also a decocker. You put a round in the chamber, drop the hammer, then carry it ready to fire DA. Overall a poor review.

Amazing at how much the .380 looks to be a copy of a Makarov 9×18 built in the East Bloc countries during the Cold War.
I have one, Ernst Thall, East Germany, built at the height of the Cold War in 1962 so it’s one well built firearm and is one of the most accurate pistols I’ve ever shot.
The Makarov is a solid firearm and mine has never jammed, ever…
Check them out here and tell me you don’t see the resemblance !!!

Look at a PPK. The Makarov is based on it. I agree, the Mak is a fine little gun.
