Rabbit Ears is painting Matadors with a pretty broad brush, especially after ownership of one gun that failed after three shots. That would not indicate soft steel, it would indicate defective assembly. Even soft steel lasts more than three shots. Milt (Klein) may have imported guns that were way less than the normal quality for U.S. AYA imports. Every Matador I have examined, that would be many, have been tight on the face. "Light between the back of the barrels and the frame." would seem to be a bit of an exaggeration, at least in my experience with Matadors.
