Part of the assumption was based on HD's original post which was about the GI Springfield (the $399 pistol).
Should have figured we'd stray at some point.
The internet is a wonderful place to get information. It's also a wonderful place to screw up conversations that would be clear as day in person over a cup of tea or a pint.
I picked up a GI a little while ago. Fired the snot out of it for a little while and then put about $300 in parts into it and another $150 into a refinish. Aside from the frame, slide, barrel, and plunger tube, it's been gutted. Since then, it's been tried and true and I have no issue depending on it. Of course it's now a $800~$900 pistol....
