Anyone gone back to steel?

[Retired Bum]

Plastic, Tupperware, Rubbermaid, whatever you want to call them, they serve a purpose in reducing weight. I had to carry them on the job, but not now! These days I carry what I am comfortable with, and for me, that would be steel revolvers.

I gave up the Tupperware gizmos when I retired. And they don't make a Tupperware revolver to my knowledge.

Mmmmmmmmmmm.............. Taurus 605 Protector and Ruger LCR.

Mmmmm............. I am good with my CZ P-07. The SP-01 (closest metal version) just isn't the right one for me. So for duty, no I have not gone back to steel. I have two guns that I like but have flaws (to me). I have a Smith 6906. Great gun. Love it. I put a 6904 slide assembly on it to make it two-tone. But I cannot hang a light on it. That is problem for me. The other is a CSX. I want to hate this thing with the passion of thousand exploding suns, but it fits my hand and just seems to ride well. However, it tries to screw me randomly with a mystery trigger lockup that Smith won't/can't fix. Plus I cannot hang a light on it.

So the only metal I run is a 4" .357 mag 7-shot while in the hills, fishing, hunting, hiking, and so on. I will randomly have a 3" snubby .357 mag 5-shot as a BUG to my CZ but his is normally a micro plastic fantastic LCP.

I've been packing the same Model 457 for decades.

Cool. Cool. I wish I could live with my 6906, but if that were the case I would have probably have stopped collecting in 2000 and would never have met my CZ.
