@hoplopfheil I think style and materiality have a lot to do with it. Modern guns look very utilitarian, blocky, and sparse. There is a certain amount of 'cheapness' to something made of polymer. This is coming from a design background, of course, but plastic by itself has no 'natural' feel.
@hoplopfheil @rolandpew1230 Considering that's a Crimson Trace red dot with a Tacticon Magnifier behind it, idk if it matters that it's in the right place.
