Regardless of whether or not the JSW is equal to or better than the crafted, it does not change the fact that we deserve weapons that look like weapons.

There is no reason for SE to continually go out of their way to make all PGL weapons absurdly over the top. I would rather have something near invisible than a massive cinder block.
