Greeting's All-
Just thought that I would ask, when you sworn LEO's
go 10-42 (ending tour of duty) for the day and retire
to your favorite family retreat; do you guy's and gal's
leave your duty weapon in its holster, or do you take
it out and properly secure it until the next scheduled
shift?
I have this horrible feeling that a duty weapon left
in a duty holster is NO GOOD for the weapon; even
those of stainless construction! In my way of
thinking, leather attracts moisture; and in most cases
moisture will turn to rust spots on blued weapons, or
tarnished spots on nickel weapon's but I'm not sure
what effects (if any) it would have on stainless steel
firearms? Thanks for reading the post, as I'm always
interested in your reply's! Looking forward to hearing
your input.
Best Wishes,
