Lot's of people seem to be able to design really ugly pistols. But what about revolvers?

Do you know of a really Butt Ugly revolver?

Ruger double action revolvers (GP100 and Redhawk) are ugly. It looks like they were only half finished.

But they still arent as fugly as Ruger semi-autos (nothing is).

Tamara, that's not ugly. What model is it?

Speed, THAT was a nasty trick. :)

I always thought these were pretty ugly:

My vote is for the Ruger Super Redhawk. Compared to it, the Nagant is downright pretty.

RogerC,

Tamara, that's not ugly. What model is it?

It's a Rossi 720 Covert, with a set of hideous faux-stag plastic grips originally intended for a square butt J-frame. (The Pachmayresque fingergroove rubber brick that came on it originally was large enough to make it not-so-Covert. My gunsmith and I determined that square-butt J-frame grips would fit with only minor grinding on the gun, and the only choices in town at the time were these fake stag ones or a pair of even more hideous Mother-of-Plastic ones. I went for the Annie Faux-kley look rather than the Pimpdaddy Luvin' one. ;) )

I was putting together some Wally World particleboard bookshelves not long before this picture was taken when I noticed I didn't have a hammer in the house to knock the finishing nails in. No problem, just unload the Rossi and use the butt. (Hey, Colt collectors pay extra for those scars on a dug-up Model P! :D )

I have a Nagant myself, but I figure it's cheating to enter a gun built by vodka-sodden Communists while German tanks were crashing through the factory walls in an ugly gun contest. ;)

:D Second - or third, or whatever - the Ruger Super Redhawk. BIG and UGLY. :eek: Its saving uh, grace (?) is that it works, and its strong as a vault.

Butt ugly.:p

My vote goes with RogerC, the 1895 russian nagant, had one, it was so ugly and underpowered that I had to get rid of it.

Okay...I could see something like that being made by some gunsmith, under the influence of much drugs and/or alcohol. But Smith and Wesson? ***?!

Ruger SRH for sure. The barrel/frame interface looks like a prop from a pipe fitting class.

Now the Ruger SBH on the other hand is a thing of beauty to behold!
