I recently bought a surplus Sig P226 and there is obvious holster wear. The grip and the rails look great. It's just developed some harmless character where the gun hit the holster. I'm a bit shocked that holsters can take the finish off faster than the slide will on the rails. I'm curious, what wears the finish off faster: Leather or Kydex?
If it's Kydex I'm wondering if spraying the inside of my Blackhawk Serpa's with teflon would prevent holster wear. Not that it really matters, it just seems like something that would be easy to prevent.
I tote my shotguns around in a cloth case and my rifles stay in the pelican cases. They seem fine. I know this pistol has probably seen many, many more miles though.
Anyway, this thread pertains to all things that wear off a guns finish and it's prevention. So I'm putting it in general.
