Very nice Colt. Are you worried about the duty holster wear on the finish? I don't on a Glock, but man that is a nice gun!

Cerakote is some tough stuff (done well of course). I had some on my bike's pipes, and on the headers of a drag car I piloted for a while. Both of them took considerable abuse, the stacks on the rail had dents from sloppy ratchet work but the coating remained.Thank you. The Safariland holster is suede lined and the Rail Gun is Cerakoted.
But honestly, I LOVE hard use wear showing on my fighting guns so when it happens then it happens. No biggie. I expect it, actually encourage it.
I've found (for me anyway) that carrying or concealing a full size is no harder than a compact. I prefer the full size for shooting so I carry a few extra ounces to know it will be an extension of my arm.
Your statement about a "fighting gun" caught me sort of strange. Please understand that I am so conservative I make Ted Cruz look like Bernie Sanders so I'm not picking a fight. I do also understand that a duty weapon is not there to balance the handcuffs and magazines on the other side of your belt. That statement though seems like just the sort of thing you would hear thrown back at an officer in a LoD investigation. *shrug* Maybe it's because my coffee has not soaked in yet.
