    Amen, blued steel or brass, period. Pot metal is just not collectable to me.

    That would mean that serious collectors would not have the likes of the Crosman 600, 677, SA6, 451,Shiloh, Mark 1, Mark 11, 38C and T, M1 carbine, Smith and Wesson 78G 79G, Schimel, etc, etc etc. Would be very boring.

    You need to get some decent old American "pot metal" guns then, super performers and highly thought of and collected by thousands over here. Will still be around after the steel has rusted away. Future collectors will be collecting all the latest pistols 90% of which are made from zamak now.
