And also look at the hardening process. The 'real' lugers had parts separately treated to create harder surfaces. It seems that this treatment was not of insufficiently done on the Stainless ones. This, in combination with not-too-tight tolerances and poor overall finishing, should account for most of the problems.

Most of those problems are rectifyable and I guess most were. But I must say that we have heard too much evidence of quality issues to simply discard them as 'internet gossip'.
