Oh, I thought you were referring to the nickel SIG P226s specifically.
It's not stupid to want a particular finish on a gun if it makes the gun look better. And not all nickel guns are that much more expensive than regular black versions - the nickel SIGs certainly didn't cost as much as they do now, back when they were still being produced.
I don't own or buy nickel-plated guns myself, but I think it offensive to say that anyone who wants one is "stupid".
