    Just curious.
    Plastic guns still have metal slides... it all comes down to technique.

    I was the same way, I only had metal-framed guns for the longest time...and didn't want polymer. That changed when I found the need for a deep concealment piece and chose a Ruger LCP. We have a couple now.

    I still prefer metal, but I've gotten over my distrust and dislike of polymer.

    At least that's what they said about 6 pack rings and plastic water bottles.
    Well you can put a sex robot and a woman in a freezer for a decade and the robot will still work when you get them back out, but I'd still rather have a real woman.

    Why plan for something you're never going to do when you can enjoy things more now?

    I used to be forged steel and walnut only.

    Alloy frames were also not acceptable.

    I guess I'm so used to it now that I forgot that those are polymer. I guess I do have poly pistols around! LOL!

    My FN FNX 45 with 16 230grainers is one big heavy bitch, I'm sure it will put a good whippin on some miscreant if needed

    Sounds like they conceal so well that you forgot where you put them.

    Good luck at the airport.

    I just got used to carrying the P238, the LCP is in my toolbox.
    The point was polymer is so prevalent that I don't pay too much attention to what's made out of what.
