Glocks the best looking, it is true only if there were no other guns in the world then yes Glock would be the best looking gun (; >)

I think that the Grand Power K100 and variants have a certain visual appeal.

I personally think the PPQ is decent looking as far as polymer pistols go. IMO HK makes some of the better looking poly pistols but looks are very subjective.
Right on! My thoughts exactly (especially regarding the PPQ).

I'd nominate my G17, but I know that it is one of the ugliest pistols ever made.
Don't worry. For Glocks, there is a mantra you can memorize:

I didn't buy my Glock <your model here> gen4 to win a beauty contest.
Let's see, Glock rhymes with "block". Coincidence?

I'm glad we have these just-for-fun threads once in a while!

Another vote for the CZ SP01 Phantom.
But honestly this is like a beauty contest at a pig farm. None of them are really very pretty compared to a revolver or 1911.

I’ve become rather fond of the Witness P-Match for a sharp looking polymer.

I'll go ahead and say Glock 19 or 17. They are functionally beautiful to me.

Edit:

Oops almost forgot the Glock 30..

Browning 1911-380... ‘Cause it’s pretty much a mini-1911 with a polymer frame. Locked breech and all.

I have to agree with BOOGIE, As far as polymer guns go, I really like the look of the SigPro2022. I also like the way my Shield looks as well as my Glock 26.

It is a Caracal F. I had one for awhile and liked it a lot. Then they were recalled for heat treat issues.

I understand that they are back on the market, but I have yet to see one in the wild...

I would have to say the M&P line looks the best overall. Behind that, HK p30/usp, and the FNX/FNS.

The full-sized CZ's look the best to me.

And to me the High Points are quite ugly.

That Caracal F looks like a Ruger/Glock love child.

When I saw the Sig Sauer P320 Compact RX Romeo1 -
Displayed behind glass at my local Nexus Shooting Range...It was Love at first sight!
I was just browsing and it stopped me in my tracks!
I thought to myself, "I have to have that gun!"
A few weeks later...I did!
Thank God it shoots as good as it looks!

Then I put a small FDE grip module on it...
Here it is in a Vedder IWB holster cut for the Romeo and Talon Grip

I like the HK P-30 quite a bit. It pretty much looks like the Wather PPQ so, I would say it's one of the better looking ones too. Then there are the Steyr M9-A1 or L9-A1.
