To me, Pretty/Sexy always starts with Sig P230SL. Got rid of my 92-it is a beautiful finely machined pistol but too big and I already have too many safe queens. I would offer its little brother Cheetahs in the pretty/sexy category along with these others

Yes, I forgot about the Cheetahs. My 87s are sexy too.

along with several others that have already been mentioned…..

When I think sexy I think of these

Sig P230SL



I'll agree with your fist choice for sure...
(Is that the p230 I won here a few years back?)
I looked closer and their are scratches on the slide on the one pictured above.... and the grip is close but not exactly the same...
had to take the one I'm talking about out and fondle it, which I do about once a month.

92 good looking but,
My top 5 in no order, BHP w internal extractor and ring hammer, PO8, PP inc. k and ks German or Manurhin, Blued Pythons and SW 27.
Unconventional Beauties
Beretta 71
Original AutoMag
Colt Woodsman
Whitney Wolverine
Sig Hammerli P240

I’d absolutely give it a top 5 spot. I always wanted an Inox and several years ago a friend sent me a link to one at a great price. I couldn’t mash “BUY NOW” fast enough. I’ve taken it out once and put two mags through it. Now I just take it out of the case and admire it occasionally but I’ll never get rid of it.

BHP

Classic quality would be my term for the 92.
My first handgun, BTW and one I would never sell.
Sexy would better be applied to a James Bond PPK, IMO.

Besides all the others already mentioned, I might include the Walther P88 (sorry for the crappy pic):


If you include rimfires, the Browning Medalist gets my vote. (sorry no pic, I am still looking for the right one)

I think so, Beretta 92’s are a nice looking pistola for sure.

You have a decided point sir.



Unfortunately, I only have this rather sad mix-n-match badly refinished P 08. But it is still pretty darn good looking at that!

It's not even the sexiest Beretta. That title belongs to the 87 Cheetah.

Well, yeah I can see that. What I can’t see, unfortunately is my budget stretching to one.

Even used they seem to be all the way into crazy, price-wise.

P88 was my runner up only because of that butterface lever

When speaking of beautiful handguns, the P88 does not come to mind, but I do own one and when you hold a P88, a beauty of sorts does come through. These are fantastically-built pistols.

1911, Beretta 92, a Colt SAA, and a nice .357 Mag - like a Colt Python / King Cobra…

And don’t forget the sexiness of s nicely blued handgun with a little bit of living wear…

I pulled that pic on a yahoo search for P230SL and it was from an auction site.

Beretta not too bad.

Glock....LMAO. That was great !
