"Poor quality steel"; that's a hoot. The cast steel Ruger receivers have been tested and proven to be stronger than the bar stock that many others are made from.
Sounds like an excuse from a "poor quality gunsmith" for crap work to me.
If the American fits your needs and budget, by all means buy it. I might buy one myself one day for a throwaway shooter.
