In what line of work are your handguns melting?
Actually aren't there quite a few polymer frame revolvers out now? The LCR in 38 and 357 is hard to find locally. I know quite a few locally that are selling all they can get their hands on.Plastic isn't being welcomed by the revolver crowd. I think we will see metal revolvers for a long time to come.
The one thing missing from any and all "your plastic handgun will melt in the desert/car/sunlight/Martian surface" threads is any actual evidence that it has ever happened, to any of them, ever.
Show me a 30 year old Glock or equivalent that failed in the course of normal use. Just one. I'm sure someone out there has left their Glock out in the sun a time or two without so much as giving it a hat and sunscreen to wear. I know I have. Slide yet to hit me in the forehead.

Great movie reference."One word, just one word; Plastics."
I do not worry about regularly and properly maintaining a polymer frame. Internal metal parts, occassionaly. Frame, no. I leave the Glock in environments for extended periods of time that quickly rusted other gun for me in the past. Glock... no worries.
