    It’s fine except where it obviously will break when used for stress-bearing parts. Which is sadly too true with many guns. The 600 appears not to be one of those.

    Hear hear,
    If it makes something affordable without compromising on durability I’m all for it.
    When it comes to air pistols it’s not all about polished milled forged steel (although that is lovely)

    Woven carbon could be the ideal material right now that can only be appreciated over a long period of time. It is lightweight, many times stronger than steel, black through and through and does not rust.
