Here's one for you: What the well-dressed P99 owner must own to keep up with the Joneses:

These folks often have Walther items that are of some interest, sometimes (as with this one) with a little wow-factor tossed in.

 

[uncut]

Not my taste at all.....
I rather have a "factory" engraved P99....and no way to these grips

Just the thing for a Bratwurst und Sauerkrat BBQ!

You guys are sure picky. And the price is ... well, it's just about right, I'd say. Yeah -- that's the ticket!

 

[PanaDP]

That is frighteningly hideous.

 

[Pitmaster]

That is frighteningly hideous.

We won't find that pistol in a Visa commercial

Another fine gun ruined.

"engraving" plastic.....? are we doing that now?

the stag is a bit much...

Especially gluing a piece to the bottom of the magazine.

Notice in the photo, the dust cover.
Who ever did the engraving didn't clean things up. There are plastic shavings hanging off the gun.

You guys are sure hard to please, but once more into the breech. Try this one for size, from the same site:

And if THAT doesn't do it for you, then there's no hope whatsoever.

All right -- at last a man who knows exactly what he wants and isn't afraid to go out and get it. Just don't let the wife know ...

 

[Zebraranger]

Thats one beautiful ivory grip on one ugly gun.

The pimp culture has invaded Germany! Engraved plastic and stag horn - now that takes some imagination! Bet it would look great with some new 22" spinners on the Benz.

Are these made by the Joseph Mengele Gun Company in Brazil?

Sometimes beauty is in the shooting eye of the beholder. Witness this one:

Or try this one on for size:

Given the prices that they are asking, you'd think that these things were made of spun gold and silver and assembled on a Bond girl's tanned thigh. On the other hand, some folks out there love this sort of thing and can't wait to add it to their collection. I've never been a fan of engraved guns of any type, but you'll see lots of threads -- here and elsewhere -- from folks who rave about them.

It's hard to argue with that shortened, pimped-out PPK, however. What man wouldn't want THAT one in his trousers?

Captain Ahab meets Superfly?

Wow that is some amazingly bad engraving in my mind. I had to look and see if I saw any engraving on that site that I actually liked. Well it took a bit, but this Walther actually has some nice, understated engraving.

Note that this engraving was done at the factory, not by an individual.

The more understated the better. (No mystery what the caliber is).
