Honestly..IMO, but better than Springfield and Kimber.
Better as in no funky ILS like Springer. Better fit and finish. The integral plunger is a HUGE benefit. Standard Novak sight cuts a a boon. Everything made in the USA by American workers is a biggy too.
Better than Kimber in the Novak cuts on the Ruger. The barrel is fitted much better on the Ruger.
MIM is fine by me as long as it is good MIM. Some makers use MIM and you NEVER hear about parts breaking.
Springer..Good MIM.
Kimber....BAD MIM.
Wilson Combat Value line...GOOD MIM.
Ruger....Who knows as it has just came out. But I'm sure it is fine as Ruger makes good MIM as you never hear about their other guns breaking.
It's just my opinion...and it may stink, but it is mine.
