does anyone else tend to choose gun based on how they look and not how they operate, or am I the only one?

your post was really shitty

My dad is like that, he only buys guns he thinks are sexy.

I don't share that opinion and hence have a wider selection of guns. My Glock 34 is ugly, but he still shot it during pistol league. Kept the AccuShadow for myself.

Not normally, but pic is going to be my first entry into the world of shotguns and aesthetics + a unique action was the primary deciding factor. I'm usually utilitarian. Shotguns are only for sport anyway so I had no problems with treating myself to some art.

It's a half and half for me.

i will not buy a piece of shit even if i really like how it looks, but when comparing two well made firearms that function similarly, i'll usually pick the one that tickles me better.

I want a Colt 602 clone solely for it's looks and the interesting historical niche it occupies.

Come to think of it, I only own two of my fifteen guns for exclusively practical reasons.

I find it that a lot of the good looking stuff is also good quality. Just seems to be like that most of the time.
All the shit i buy has both those qualities. If it's missing either one, I don't buy it.
