To the folks who think the gun is indestructible-I was around the "Dam Neck" area and had plenty of opportunities to shoot with some folks over the years. There was no shortage of broken P226 guns, especially with the stamped slides. When the solid ones came out, much less but they still "didn't last forever"
I don't think anyone has suggested they last forever.
I cracked a frame on a 226 after something like 25,000 rounds and had a 228 slide crack after a similar round count. They are just a dream to shoot. I think it's been pretty well established the Glocks are the indestructible handgun, the front sight might fall off earlier gens but other than that they are pretty bombproof.
It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.
Chuck, we miss ya man.
