LCP barrel showing some holster wear

What type holster are you using, leather? I use a Desantis Nemesis pocket and a cell phone case for OWB. I am not noticing any wear but I do have a Bersa that I carry in a leather holster from time to time and it is showing big time wear from the leather holster.

I got my LCP in April. I carry it daily. It is now showing some holster wear on the barrel. Anyone else starting to see this?

surely u must mean the slide and not the barrel???????? If so, that would be normal the lcp blueing is sure not state of the art stuff, If you want a super finish go to Accurate-Iron.com and look at his work. He did my lcp slide for me in titanium and silver fleck and it is totally awsome and wears like the glock and kahr finish. He guarantees it 100%. Plus a super nice guy to do business with also.

On the leather holsters if they are lined it helps a little with the wear but won't stop it, my slide is starting to show some wear, I will have CCR do it soon. John

I have to assume you mean the slide as well, and yes it is normal, leave it there, nothing wrong with some honest holster wear on a pistol. In fact I think it gives character to a pistol, its not a beauty contest after all and ya don't worry about scratches or honest wear on your hammer or shovel do ya? 8)

I think holster wear on a pistol looks cool. Gives it great character! If you hate it, send it to CCR.
