Hi Jaimie. You did extremely well sir! Congratulations on your purchase. As an older guy I can tell you that I went through the fad of polymer guns. I have nothing bad to say about them ( although I own none lol ). They do the job they are tasked to do. That having been said, when I hold one of my steel S&W pistols in my hand, it is like shaking hands with John Wayne, Clint Eastwood, or Charles Bronson.
