It was about how some PCPs are so darn ugly,I realized most things are getting uglier, including me,so I chickened out

There's a tradeoff. Airgun makers sacrifice Beauty for comfort and mechanisms of adjustability.
Same ugly rifle can be same accurate but not so comfortable nor adjustable.

I came into this sport a 100% traditionalist. Give me a wood stocked long rifle. I hate to admit it but the tactical look and bullpup configuration in general has taken over for me. I have an ugly gun. Skout epoch. It really is but for some reason I really like it.

Same, but for me the bullpup is purely for function and utility. I really want a nice DRS but the stubby length of a 500mm FX is something I dont think I can give up. Maybe something like the older Walnut tube version of the Wildcat is a good compromise for me...I came into this sport a 100% traditionalist. Give me a wood stocked long rifle.

1980 was the last time I had to qualify on the M16 and it was still a horrible weapon. So the Armalite style of rifle I find repulsive.
For some reason the Kalashnikov SV-99 LR is the cat's meow for me, and somehow it translates for me into this in PCP:

Some tactical gun are uglier than others, I viewed my PCPs rifles as tools. I like the no nonsense functionality of tact guns, no worries about scratching a nice wooden stock.

100% I've owned really nice airguns like the Daystate Hunstman and others with beautiful walnut stocks. Always worried if it would get scratched I rarely used them for the reason they were bought. Sent them on their way to someone who would appreciate them more. But my "ugly" Taipans get used all the time lol aame with the Notos. My Evol Mini though I wouldn't ever call ugly as others against tactical guns are but also not afraid to use it for its purpose.

Like a fugely in hot pants,still ugly ,butt she sure she can cook.Function is sometimes all that matters.I am starting to get use to it.I can agree that what works for some is all that matters,and if it is small and ugly all the better.
