Nks,

We certainly have tried to do things for cost savings. That allows us to get bows out at a pricepoint. $499 is an example with the Titan. We can't put all the features in a Titan for $500. No different then when you look at Chevy vs Cadillac.
As for the MIM, it gives us the tight tolerences and good surfaces that we need to produce a good trigger. The quality and surfaces finishes on our parts are very good. We are running on two triggers right now.

I liked this years line up and 2009 looks better.
