I've complained about these before. I owned a commander length gun, nice looking, but cheap finish. Never truly reliable with any mag and always using factory hardball. Inferior metallurgy, extractor broke at 3000 rds, replaced w/ GI, at 4000+ the bushing and ambi safety were cracked, I'm still undecided what went wrong w/ their heat treats, some parts broke like they were too hard, improperly tempered, some of it seemed like low-carbon steel that was case hardened. The barrel didn't exactly mate up w/ the slide lugs, other minor things. The Mf rate was about 2-3 per 50. If you get one, consider it a range beater, shoot the hell out of it then sell!
