My problem with MIG is that the flooding gas, usually argon with 25% CO2, 
designed to add carbon to the dead soft wire used so as to harden the 
dead soft wire.  But literature to guide one in using that in the field, 
with a reasonable yield of a case hardened surface is either never 
printed, or kept proprietary. Since you can very handily control all 
that, I much prefer to weld with a gas torch simply because the hardness 
of the flame gives you so much control over the hardness of the weld
