NRA Wants to Ease Laws on Buying Gun Silencers

24. Anything people buy has some component of visual appeal

Our primary means of observing the world is visual, so that plays into everything we do. Guns are no exception to this rule; you can buy a variety of accessories to replace stock parts, and many of these accessories are functionally identical yet visually different. For example, you can buy magazine base plates with symbols and sayings etched/engraved/silkscreened on them. American flags, sports team logos, catchy sayings, skulls, etc.

And there is a certain amount of quality judgement that goes into looks: if they spent that much time on the outside, they must have spend even more on the inside, right?

Hopefully, at least.

But designers are no less human than you, and take pride in their work same as everybody else. If they design an eye-catching design for the serrations of a pistol slide that is equally effective as a plain design, they take as much pride in this achievement as the consumer that will purchase that gun.
