Dunno...Other than extractors, I haven't seen an MIM part on a
Colt break yet...Maybe a better vendor...Maybe a bad run of Kimber parts?
My Colts get the MIM parts replaced soon after I get'em unless the
gun is intended to be a range toy. Then I just shoot'em 'til they break
and replace'em piecemeal. So far, with the NRM Colt, about 12,000
rounds on the MIM sear and disconnect and no problems. The extractor went south in a thousand rounds. Replaced with one of my last
Gi spring extractors. Those are gettin' scarce...
That is the reason I walked away from 1911's. Over-priced and too many QC short-cuts. I had six 1911's and everyone had one problem or another. My SIG, Beretta, and S&W revolvers are superior handguns at a fraction of the cost!!
