MARSOC DET-1 has a pistol similar to the Warrior, and yes, it has MIM parts. They put a lot of rounds through their guns, and premature or freak breaks were not seen. I know this firsthand as I got a tour of their armory about 8 months ago, and it was one of the first things I asked their armorer. He was a very knowledgeable 1911 guy, and he told me that his personal opinion is that MIM is not a problem at all. He is of the opinion that all small parts can break eventually, and that they were not experiencing any more parts breakage due to MIM parts.
You can't deny all of the people that have premature or freak parts breakages with MIM parts, aprticularly Kimber MIM (as opposed to MIM in a Springfield), but it's hard to put it into perspective. You have a point that perhaps there are a few very vocal people as opposed to thousands who have no problems, but who wouldn't be vocal if they had a bushing or mag release break on a gun after a few hundred rounds. I've never seen that happen with Springer and Colts, and I've seen a lot of broke 1911s.
My father in law, who is a metalurgical engineer for a very large aerospace firm with some very large military contracts, explains it like this. MIM is a cost cutting and labor saving manufacturing method. The process is not flawed, but if you use cheap powdered metal, you get a cheap, brittle end product. My guess is that Kimber is outsourcing their MIM parts and have gotten some pretty low qaulity part.
Between what I've seen in person on mine and other's guns, and what I've seen on the internet, parts on Kimbers that break more frequently than cast or barstock parts on other 1911s are hammers, ambi safeties, slide stops, mag releases, and barrel bushings. The last two are parts I've never even seen break on any other quality 1911 that was made in the last 20 years. For me, I hate having to be concerned about these parts, and it's worth replacing them, but in reality, the chances of actually having a breakage like this are very slim.
