I don't see many people packing around a metal pistol that isn't some sort of flavor of 1911 much these days.
Yes, there are a number of SIGs out there and maybe a Beretta if someone likes a really full size gun, but polymer seems to rule the day. Even revolvers that are made of steel are generally snubbies.
I'm just as guilty of it. I would much rather have 25oz pistol on my belt that I forget about than a big bruiser of a 40oz gun weighing me down. I just don't remember the last time I saw someone EDC a BHP or an old Smith auto or a big ol' chunky Ruger P89, etc.
Lots of great shooting guns out there that only lose out getting carried due to tipping the scales a tad much.
