Well, they also wanted a gun that looked a little more science fictiony so that it wouldn't seem like modern day guns were being used in the future.

That Beretta isn't 'ugly'. No gun is 'beautiful'. They're metal made for killing. That gun however is decades old.

Guns don't kill Humen. Humen kill Humen.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. The Beretta has it's flaws, but so does anything created by man. Besides, with a little GUNSMITHING, just about anything is possible. You can take a Beretta M-93R and add a compensator, remove the foregrip, add some polish or some parkerizing, and voila! A firearm fit for a Cleric.

The Colt .45 automatic pistol was "modern-day" in 1911 and the M2 .50 machine gun was "modern-day" in 1918 and both are still widely used to-day.

You are most certainly correct, sir. The Colt Automatic Pistol Model 1911, Caliber .45 has just had it's 100th birthday. It's had its fair share of modifications and customizations and what not. But it's still the same design that John Moses Browning developed 100 years ago. The same goes for the Browning Heavy Machine Gun, Model 1918, Caliber .50. 91 years later, it's still soldiering on basically unchanged and in the hands of nearly every single one of our allies to boot. I think that is just fantastic!

I hear that the M1911A1 .45 is in line to become the official State Gun of Utah, in honour of Mr Browning, who was a native Utahn. www.npr.org/2011/01/27/133280682/Plans-For-Utah-State-Gun-Spark-Outrage

The Constitution and the Bill of Rights are such incredible things. Here we have multiple Amendments in action simultaneously; the 1st Amendment, the 2nd Amendment... I love this country!
