Tuner, etc:
Firstly, this is not a putdown of MIM parts: I simply have come to believe that all steel is the way for me to go.
Having heard a lot about MIM parts and potential for breakage (explored nicely again in wally's ongoing poll right now), I have a question for you. Is there a new 1911 that you would feel comfortable recommending that contains no MIM, or is that solely left to older guns and part replacers? I'd like to pick up a 1911 for a HD gun, but I don't want to spend a fortune in time and money replacing a load of MIM with steel.
Should I just be looking for a different style of gun?
