I had about 6000 rounds through my Kimber Custom II before I turned it into a .22 bullseye gun. It had no parts breakages, and it had gone 5600+ rounds since its last malfunction.
At 6000 rounds through my Les Baer, I had broken both a barrel link pin and a slide stop, both of which are either forged or bar stock.
MIM isn't a necessarily a death sentence for the longevity of your parts, provided its done right. And forged and bar stock parts aren't invincible either.
