I'm wanting to replace the flat plastic MSH on my pistol with a checkered arched part. A perusal of Brownells, MidwayUSA, and the various 1911 parts places list either blued or stainless, and my pistol is nitrided stainless. Not wanting shiny or rust-prone, I came across these from Hogue:

I don't know what I don't know. Is there a preference between G10 and aluminum in this application? Pros/cons to consider?
I appreciate any thoughts on the matter.
