I installed my Tuffy High Security Box and the gear shifter does it look weird? You can see more pics of the install at the link below

Ya I'm leaning that way (It's weird) I thought I'd get use to it, but everytime I see it the first thought that comes to mine is not a giant bullett, This lady saw it and said it looked like a lipstick tube and she liked it. I think she was just being nice. It look good in the package. I got it at Bass Pro Shop.

pistol grip belongs on the correct mopars only.
but, that looks cool. it would also be cool if the tip pushed in to release auto tranny's.
and that tuffy box is great. with that shifter, it looks like an gun/ammo box.

I'm running a hurst shift **** which is a similar shape but with hand grooves in it. Personally I love the way it works. I know its not a big deal for daily driving but wheeling you get a far better grip on the shifter which can be very important when you need to make a split second shift to reverse in order to prevent a roll over. I like the performance aspect however the design of the bullet does look a female product as mentioned above

After seeing the responses I've decided it truly is weird and has to go. Anybody seen a good Gun related gear shift ***? I'm in the market!

speaking of shifter ****, anyone know where to get one that looks and functions decently with actual grooves? not the ones they sell at autozone or wallyworld with the plastic thing and screws. dont mean to thread jack lol, just figured it would be more useful here than in a whole new thread
