Ever think maybe we are just smart. Smart enough to carry less weight, or to get an upgrade in cartridge for the same weight...but yeah, we are just weak.Ya'll must be puny fellas...

Polymer/Plastic pistols are fine. There is no doubting their performance and ease of carry. They are also becoming the only choice with many manufacturers going more and more to polymer frames. They are much much less expensive to manufacture, replace and change for other models. Like ot or not, all steel or all metal guns are going to be a thing of the past in my lifetime (production pistols not customs)The hair originally being split was done, in my opinion, to push an agenda. I simply asked that we use the correct current industry terminology. Feel free to check the website for any of the manufacturers in question and you will find the word the industry is using to describe the materials in question and it is correct. Yes, silk and possibly cellulose are also polymers and you would be correct in using that word to describe them. Is it the best word? Probably not, but it is more accurate than saying that firearm frames are plastic. The question then becomes... do you only use a correct word when it suites your purpose?
There was no option for "I really like polymer framed pistols and primarily buy them." That has got to be the most biased and limited poll I have ever seen here
Yeah! You show that guy what you think of his opinion based on the purpose of anything other than a straw-man poll.This poll isn’t biased it’s just for metal lovers, if you want a plastic/poly love fest go start another poll.
Their cheaper to make. Only thing Gun company's don't pass saving back to buyers. They guns are all the same You can't make personal with grips or other . Their just plastic with a barrel and trigger

Yeah, most Plastactical pistols have triggers that break like a wet Graham cracker. I put a 3lb trigger in my G27 and found out it didnt stage like it used to and put a round in the dirt about 10 feet in front of me. Dangerous to say the least and I promptly put the old trigger back in.If they made them with metal trigger and without trigger "safetys" (where you have to put your finger on the trigger in order to pull the trigger.... dur oh really? genius!) Then they would be great.

This is not meant as a personal attack, but that is not a trigger problem. That is a trigger control problem. Why would you have your finger on the trigger and pulling it before you had the gun pointed at the target?Yeah, most Plastactical pistols have triggers that break like a wet Graham cracker.

Combat course. Bringing the pistol up from low ready to high ready and touched the trigger. I always staged Glocks when shooting target. Its a bad trigger. Chuckle-headOh man, this post here is the post of the day. I got a good chuckle from it.
So you handled a pistol in a neglegent manner, then you blame the pistol? How hilarious!!

There's a lot of people unaware of the purpose of the trigger safety, so I'm not trying to patronize you when I say this. That little trigger doohicky is there for 2 reasons.If they made them with metal trigger and without trigger "safetys" (where you have to put your finger on the trigger in order to pull the trigger.... dur oh really? genius!)
