Why have millennials stopped buying steel framed guns?
>>34556640
Fuck are you talking about? Plus COD kiddies and mexicans eat up the desert eagle meme
>>34556640
Weight.
they stopped making steel guns
>>34556727
This, if S&W made new 5906s I'd get one
>>34556640
Name one (good) steel framed gun released post 2000.
>>34556711
That there is some of that aluminum alloy my man. Looks nice.
>>34556727
Most steel guns were over priced or single stack, or both looking at you 1911s.
>>34557048
>>34557118
>Name one (good) steel framed gun released post 2000.
Wrong on both counts.
>>34556640
steel framed guns are heavy and hard on limp wrists.
>>34557140
Why would steel framed guns be hard on limp wrists? there's less felt recoil.
>>34556640
>be millenial
>have Jericho
>have BHP
>have several steel framed wheelguns
>had a 1911
>have friends within my cohort who're in to guns
>they have CZ-75's, 1911's, various other steel framed handguns
I dunno what the fuck you're on about.
>>34556640
Cuz u like it up da ass u faggot no guns.
Boom bitch .357 mag for yo faggot no guns havin ass.
>>34556640
Hey, I'm a millennial and I love historical guns!
>>34557836
>poverty six
I'm a millennial and I love steel.
>>34558192
U mean best magnum ever made next to mr73 who's design also based on ruger security six. I think so mr. No guns
>>34556640
Idk what the millennial age range is nowadays but I am young and collect surp
>>34558429
something like 19-34. Most millennials are just poor so they go with the light cheap poly for basic "everything" duty. The market is shifting towards 380s/9s and subcompact CCWs so not everyone wants to drop $500 on a 32oz chunk of metal to tuck inside their skinny jeans. Not many of them go with 45acp either.
>>34558319
>best magnum ever made
What is 686?
>>34556640
I haven't stopped
t. Wildwestaboo
>>34556640
Wait until mah hudson h9 comes out
Bore axis so low it puts the glock fanbois on suicide watch
>>34558684
Maybe because 45 ACP is a useless, underpowered round.
>>34558804
>babby's first bait post

>>34557129
Kek.
I'm buying a M9A3 after I order my $2,000 worth of ammo at the end of the month.
>>34556640
Shouldn't the question be why did boomers stop making them?
>>34556640
>be millennial
>first gun purchase was anugget
>first handgun was a eaa witness 45/22
>now my guns are like catholic bunnies, i now have around 20 firearms.
I'm 25 is that a millennial
I literally just bought a steel framed gun, I have no interest in EDC so weight doesnt concern me and I enjoy how the metal feels in my hand
>>34558883
yea
>>34558684
Where do I fit in?
>>34558823
No he's right I sold my glock 30s for dat reason underpowered as in no penetration and very low fps. Even then u need 5 inch barrel to get most of da round and dats if u use orginal designed 230gr.
Now I got a glock 19 with hst 124+p.
Even then I wanna sell it for a glock 22 for more velocity dat 9mm doesn't have.
They're impractical and collecting guns is just about hopeless these days because everything good is illegal.
>>34556640
Is that some dude grabbing Soe's titty?
>>34556640
But all my guns are
>>34558684
You right.
I personally carry a Colt new service in 45lc :^)
>>34556640
Nothing hotter than a slut in a choker and thigh high boots
>>34558860
That is a sexy gun
>>34556640
why would you even choose steel over alloy
>>34558883
Why no interest in CCW?
What if you get into altercation?
>>34556640
I can only think of 1 of my handguns that isnt steel.
I am still upset that im technically a millennial.
>>34558726
>what is the 686
Lol far from the best revolver thats for sure.
Get a dan wesson and never make me laugh that hard ever again

How much did you pay for that?

That's an identifiable trend among millenials

>>34556640
This is an interesting new approach. This fucker was always spamming /pol/ with pictures of that leathery dried up old tattooed circus freak of a hag who works in marketing for some shitty game company under guise of discussing millennials doing this or not doing that. Now he's here in /k/.
>>34559745
>>34559765
you mean saving money. did you read that fucking ustoday article too?
"hoarding" today used to be called saving.
>>34556640
If someone made a steel Polymer80 frame I would buy it. Or a steel P320 frame. Or a steel LCP frame. I would also buy a Kahr K9/MK9 if someone other than Kahr made one (My P380 turned me off of that company).
Life is suffering.
>>34559787
Millenials spend too mich money on shit they dont need
In between their constant phone purchases, traveling to music festivals, drugs, going to clubs, and their expensive clothes, millenials seem to choose having things like this over saving money.
And then they have the audacity to complain when they try having children and struggle.
>>34559759
not only did that not rhyme but steel isnt even in there
>>34559904
What do you think iron stands for in this context exactly
>>34559978
Military forces, specifically those used to quell rebellion. Read a book you fudd.
>>34560050
but people aren't made of iron
>>34559904
You're supposed to remove alloys
Im 20 and I cant wait to pick up an ATI/RIA 1911 or a CZ75 when I turn 21. I love steel - polymer isn't my thing, nor is it any of my friends'.
I think all the WWII games I played when I was younger gave me the steel fetish
>>34556640
millennials arent men. the ones who pretend to protect themselves do so in a pussy manner with 9mm and plastic
>>34558684
millennials were born after the millennium, so 17 and under
>>34560233
No that's not how it works.
Try google, Bubba
>>34560233
That's Gen Z, from the years 1995 - present. Millenials are generally between 1980 to 1995. I'm a Gen Z person, which is supposedly the most conservative generation since WWII
>>34559695
not him, he probably does, but in typical millennial fashion sucks at communication and writing skills. what he probably meant to say is "no interest in CCW because i live in a cuck liberal state that forbids it and places the rights of common street and liberal elitist criminals above tax paying peasants"

They still have brand new 5946 for sale at places like cabela's. Apparently they are new old stock from Canadian police orders.
DAO and no saftey or decocker. The one I tried didn't work DAO though and was SAO for some reason.
>>34560285
Did you know the word TEENAGER was made up in the 50's! Its weaponized to catagorize people into certain groups, in this case to stunk the growth of a man but making them feel like they are still children, in some pretend frat house environment While they are in their prime of life where a human is suppose to raise his family and care for himself and them That is suppose to happen in the late teens early twenty's when a human has his most strength, so he can build a house sow a field build a life on this earth for his soul and his offspring

Nigger, my rent is over half my income and I can't find anything cheaper in commuting distance to the city where I work and go to college. I can't afford any of the horse shit you listed; I'm on a used HTC One M8 I got for sixty bucks. I can't afford to travel to funerals for my grandparents, let alone goddamn concerts. I barely keep my wife and myself fed, and you think we can buy drugs? Fuck you. I'm wearing clothes I had in high school almost ten years ago because I taught myself how to sew them back together. Eat a dick and meet a millennial before you decide they all live lavish entitled lives because you watched a fucking CW show, asshole.
>>34560932
Damn nigga, where the fuck do you live, SF? I would say >>34559894 is correct about around 60% of our generation. The majority of them ((((us))) are whiny self entitled bitches, who use drugs and experiences to mask their self doubt and purposelessness
>>34560948
>where the fuck do you live, SF?
Nah, Fort Collins, CO. Even Laporte prices are starting to catch up to the Californian transplants moving in.
>>34559894
Funny, I'm actually the opposite.
I even put off getting expensive-ish guns despite having plenty enough to afford them because I'm piling up as much money as I can for no reason in particular.
Working freelance fucked me up.

Mettle is the courage to carry on. If someone wants to "test your mettle," they want to see if you have the heart to follow through when the going gets tough.
Millenials don't buy guns

SF here, it could be worse. I only make $64k which is really low here but I finally got smart and bought a van to live in.
>>34556640
We spend too much money on avocado toast to afford real guns or houses.
>>34560233
No. Millennials are people who reached adolescence around the millennium. They used to be called Gen-Y until Millennial became a popular buzzword.
>>34556640
Because objectively, unless we are talking about 10mm, there is no advantage over aluminum or polymer.
im a millennial and i hate my generation!!!
>>34559756
They're still cool little guns anon, no reason to be salty about aesthetics.

What kind of steel is "alloy" again?
>>34567269
The SP-01.
I own two.
>>34560285
Oh shit guess I dodged a bullet then since I was born in 96. As soon as I turned 18 I already picked up my ar and quickly followed by my VZ and Mauser.
I carry my BPH every day and even after a 14 hour shift at work I only ever notice the weight when I take it off. Even then its still not much. I would never trust some tactical tubberware with my life. But thats just my opinion, to each their own.
>>34567339
"Steel is an alloy of iron and other elements, primarily carbon."
Any steel
This is where I provide you a personal anecdote of owning at least one steel frame gun and being a millennial, then saying something negative about millennials.
>>34563000

>RIA 1911 frame

R-Right, precisely.
Well now that my position as a knowledgable authority is well cemented I shall inform you this particular alloy is actually primarily aluminum.
>>34557048
RAMI
Why do all steel semis have safeties?
>>34556640
Gen Z reporting.
Millennial are slack jawed faggots, and new firearm designs that still use a steel frame are becoming a rarity sadly.
Hell, allot frames are going the same route as well from the looks of it.
>>34571249
Because most of them have a trigger that actually has a break and doesn't need a jack to pull it.
>>34571292
Would much rather have a good DA/SA or a nice DA-feeling trigger. So many people need their trigger to feel like snapping a frozen hair to hit anything. Sad.
>>34556718
kek
>>34556640
Because polymer means I can carry 3 guns for each one of your steel frames, grandpa.

M8, 40 is a subsonic round, it's normally slower than 9. Did you mean momentum? 357 Sig normally has more velocity than 9

>>34559894
remove "phone" from that list and you just described young people of every generation past the G-rated poster families of the 50s. You're only aware of the millennials because they're here and now
>>34571249
TT-33 doesn't.
The same reason when they need to look up a fact they don't know how to use the card catalogue at the library and if their horse broke down on the way home they wouldn't even know how to shoe it.
Fucking millennials.
>>34559695
Rape.
>>34557104
This
>>34556640
Because they actually want to carry a pistol worth a damn concealed? In the "good 'ol days" when men were men and the sheep were nervous, they carried things the Colt Vest Pocket. In the "Old West", the most popular pistols were derringers.
Most people don't want to lug around three pounds of steel on their hip all day every day. That's always been true.
>>34556640
My first handgun was a steel-framed Hi-Power and I'm as millennial as they come
Tacticool marketing maybe, I dunno.
I'm a millennial and I'm a big fan of wood and steel construction. Most of the Glock and and AR fanboys I see (not owners or fans, I mean fanboys) are middle aged dads.
Speak for yourself.

>can't find a BHP in stock online at retailers I trust

>not even the damn FUDD gun stores have one
Not saying a BHP is a fudd gun it just so happens the one place I saw them in stock several years back locally was a small shop that was fudd as fuck. Only durr rifles, 1911s, BHPs and wheel guns, which I love all of those I just have other interests too. The fussiest of fudd stores in my area has even started keeping plenty of plastic fantastics in stock.
Really makes me think the "fudd" stereotype is dying.

I think I figured it out, OP. Most people have no idea what the hell steel even is.

Why does it have to have been released after 2000?
Just because a gun was designed in the 20th century doesn't mean it's not good anymore.
>>34580824
I think he means people tend to want to buy the newer hotter guns like they see in media. For millennials those guns are gonna be plastic.
>>34580934
>like they see in media
Doesn't media usually show classic well know designs? I can't count how many times I've seen a desert eagle or a beretta on screen.
>>34581335
I guess you're right, though the M9 is aluminum. It just feels like everything is about Glocks and similar guns. Maybe my LGS just sucks but that's about 80% of their inventory. 80% plastic, 10% 1911s, 5% Sigs, and 5% Berettas.

There are no high quality modern steel guns.
