How dare you insult american aesthetics! Clearly you Italians know nothing about art or culture.

I actually think the grip on the Riffe is pretty cool - and I like the way the track is almost enclosed. The trigger mech is also going to be sturdier than a lot of the euro triggers. It is a functionally minimalistic design though - While aesthetics are a matter of taste I'd say the emphasis on the Riffe's is durability and the capacity to handle a fair amount of power. I've got an Omer Cobra and a little Riffe MT0 - which pretty much covers the range aesthetically. I actually traded in my 100cm cobra for the 90 partly because I think it's prettier (the 90 also tracks much better).
