Plastic??

Friday night the Boss and I were at her sisters for pizza and movies. Before we left the brother-in-law had to show me his new toy. He traded in a Ruger Mini 14 and purchased a Springfield XD in .45acp. This surprised me a bit becauwse he has always stuck his nose in the air about tupperware guns.

He has liked single action steel autos. The XD is classified as single action, but it still has the very long trigger travel. I wonder how long he'll keep it.

I understand why the Mini 14 was expendable. He recently built an AR, but a plastic handgun was a big surprise.
