I was at a Gander Mountain in the area today & they have a used one, 20" bbl, .45 Colt caliber, for $300.00. They're supposedly connected with Howa. Can anyone tell me what level of quality these guns are, say, on a scale of 1 to 10? How strong?....Is the receiver a forging, enabling it to handle stout reloads, or a casting, as on my Armi San Marco? I had a guy at the range tell me Armi was known for using soft metal. Is this one a good bet for something stronger? And how does yours shoot? Thanx for the feedback. jd45.
