Th pistols at the Rowland conversion site are not designed for that kind of stress.

And they will soon show it.

"Th pistols at the Rowland conversion site are not designed for that kind of stress."

You have a semi-valid point when it comes to a Rowland pistol. They need a compensator and a well 'balanced' recoil spring to make it past a few thousand rounds And they limit the 1911 conversions to only the most hardy frames and slides.

But on the Mech-Tech system THEIR receiver takes 99% of the stress; the lower is merely the magazine housing and the fire control system.
