This Browning 1911-22LR has an aluminum slide.
Should I steer clear of it or is that fine (vs the stainless steel or steel slide)?
I was told by a company that upgrades guns:
"the Buckmark, Victory and MK IV are the most accurate 22lr since they use a bolt, not a slide and have fixed barrels."
"This gun has been upgraded by us. Refinished slide and includes our full length guide rod and the barrel length is 4.2".
I was also told the barrel is not fixed on this model (unlike the Buckmark), therefore I'm assuming it doesn't have the potential of being as accurate as the Buckmark, Victory and MK IV.
Please advise (especially Aeroflyer who seems to know much about the .22LR pistols).
If it would be no better than what I have, I won't bother, b/c something will have to be trimmed to make room for it, and I'm already going to have to trim some of these maybe this summer:
a. Browning Buckmark
b. Ruger Mark 4
c. S/W 22A-1
d. Colt Target
e. Smith 41
f. SW Victory
g. Beretta M9-22 (not as accurate as the others but I always wanted one: not even really a Beretta!)
h. Ruger Charger
i. Updated GSG 1911-22
