but here are a few reasons i love to work with 4130.

-not prone to "oval" bolt holes
-cuts great with laser or cnc
-welds very clean
-can be used as thinner material, but we usually use the same thickness
-seen many of 1020 tear, bend, shatter, rip, melt, and overall just not hold up!

its just a preference i have, we have clients that spend the $, so i have no problem using all 4130.

just different strokes for different folks.
