There is no question that out of the box springers that have plastic piston rings, guides,sleeves, and plastic linkage guides seem like tuned guns compared with springers without plastic, but does this mean they are better quality or is it a shortcut to cut cost.

The TX and the PS have factory plastic piston rings but has a metal guide, the LGV and LGU has plastic rings,guide and linkage guides. I'm not saying that this doesn't work because it does but it would also probably work on a B2.

Does anyone think that all metal Precision parts that weren't consumables and hand finished would be considered higher quality and didn't hide imperfections like the plastic does. Precision metal parts can be just as smooth and with less friction

Some of the plastic internal guns still need hand finishing. TX top LGV bottom. Just wondering if any of you guys like metal internals better than plastic
