If ya own a Toyota, the engine has MIM connecting rods in it.

What's this got to do with a 1911? Not much really, considering an internal combustion goes through a gazillion more cycles, stresses, & heat changes than a 1911 ever will.

Same logic for gun oil. Motor oil stands up for the engine, it'll damn sure suffice for a gun.

MIM is great or terrible like any other process. It depends on who's doing it.
