Modern designs are superior in nearly every practical way. They're lighter, more durable and generally more reliable. The only negative is the spotty QC that seems to infect modern manufacturing.

I'm happy to be issued modern, polymer based weapons. They're the Bic Lighters of the gun world. Use it, wear it out and give me another one. However, they have no soul or aesthetic merit. I acknowledge their practical attributes, but they're nothing I'll spend my own money on.

In less than a year I'll be retiring from law enforcement. After that, I'll probably never carry a polymer, striker fired pistol again.
