M1919s are muscular, masculine, and brutish- wide, simple barrel, spade grip, boxy features and all. It's nice to look at,

But the MG42 is simply sexy. I mean, look at that receiver. Do those curves not turn one on? And don't get me started on the stock and pistol grip.

I personally think the M94 is a beautiful design. That nice walnut stock, the asthetically pleasing shape, and the nice size.
