That was one of the things I did not like about the Springer, the 2 piece guide rod also the ambi safety. Both are really minor issues though. I also think the Melonite on the Smith might hold up better than the Parkerized finish. Another point is the Springer is made in Brazil and the Smith in USA. The one big point is I can get the Springer now, the Smith wont be in until June, the wait just gives me a chance to save more money. I wish I could afford both, its just not an option at this time. I am just looking for the best of the 2 guns, regardless of the minor differences. These are the thoughts running around in my mind.
