As usual, Caj gives excellent advice based on his tactical barbeque expertise. With them Cajuns, it's all about the vittles!

I have the issue on my 642, but only on the backstrap, as it is exposed and takes a fair amount of abuse during pocket carry. It's in my pocket a lot.

I bought the gun as a tool, and treat it like all my other tools. I take care of it, maintain it, and don't abuse it, but like all tools it gets wear marks if it is used.

Despite a little finish wear, it still functions perfectly as a tool in the role for which I bought it.

And Caj, I'm having a heck of a time finding tasso around here!
