Laugh all you want but two things, it feels good in my grip so I can shoot it well and secondly, the hammer isn't exposed so it doesn't catch on any clothing when I pull it out. Things to consider. That's just me and my experience. Others will differ, but not many of them had to deal with the shady parts of Selma like I did all the time. In other words, it probably was more important to me than others.

I’m definitely taking that advice. I went a couple of weeks ago to shoulder a few shotguns and settled on the Beretta A300. My days of buying a gun based purely on looks are officially over... well, mostly.
