What rock have you been living under. S&W cut ties a long time ago with Walther. Umerex is the German company that makes .22 pistols for many brands, but not S&W anymore. Pot metal is zinc, not many guns made from zinc in the past 40ish years. Aluminum on the other hand, has been used a lot since the 60s.
