More or less, yes.

As has been mentioned, I stick with what I know and what serves the purposes I feel important. Consequently, Government Models and (old style) Smith & Wesson revolvers still work for me as well as they did when I barely knew which end was the butt.

I'm 63 and getting ready for 64. I've carried a gun - one way or another - most of my natural life (and all of my unnatural one.) My 'use' guns are pretty much what I've always known, my collecting guns are all older issued things with some history on them.

There are very few new guns that impress me as doing something better, faster, deeper, harder, cheaper and more often than the old ones.

And if God had wanted semi-automatic pistols to be double-action or plastic, He's have had John Moses Browning design it that way in the first place!
