Those who appreciate great tools never care about their looks so long as they perform as designed when using them.

Kinda like a jock girl I knew back in high school. She may not have been quite as pretty as the cheerleaders, but I still liked her!

Then there are those that only want fine walnut, no barrel nut, non-fluted barrel, etc. because those don’t look like the old Win M70 or their old Rem 700 from xx year...

When I was in high school and wrestling at about a hundred and fifteen pounds I was taking out the shot put girl from our track team that weighed about a hundred and seventy-five pounds and she was 5 inches taller than me. The girl could literally bench-press me. To my eyes Berettas are usually very good looking shotguns.

There’s far more to a fine gun that aesthetics.

I am an unabashed traditionalist. So, yes, I think it’s ugly. It would have to be a magic wand that never misses for me to buy it.
I learned long ago you can't reason someone out of something they don't reason themselves into.

Full image. Ugly? Maybe. Certainly awkward.

The full picture looks better. First pic made it look more awkward. I’m sure it shoots real smooth!

Not thrilled to see that much poly but still not ugly. A new stock fixes that.

Nobody seems to complain about how an AR looks, or a chassis rifle. I may be in the minority, but I really don’t find any gun “ugly”. Maybe it’s because I find performance a lot more important than looks, or have come to the conclusion that guns are tools.
OP, I like your scattergun!
The secret to a long life is to try not to shorten it.

I like Beretta shotguns. That rubber looking cap on the pistol grip falls into the ugly category for me. If I shot it well enough I could probably overlook it though. Lose the funky looking rubber looking cap and it's a good looking auto loader.

Nobody seems to complain about how an AR looks, or a chassis rifle. Oh, I do. I think they are uglier than a mud fence. Blued steel and walnut for me or it just doesn't look right. This shotgun doesn't look too bad to me though.
