I totally concur with skip4309. An MIM barrel is basically a part made from metal powder and a binder and injected into a mold! Of course there are many steps involved to produce the end product,
but suffice it to say, QC must be consistant through every step and who's to say it really does!
I have a BG380 SN ECB2XXX and I love it! I have fired over 500rds and have had no issues!
