I was looking at getting one was the recoil springs tended to be a little light for the .45ACP and could lead to slides cracking.
Tanfoglio has since redesigned the slides. The newer design has more "rounding" and less sharp edges. (I doubt that the round or sharp edges was the issue, but they made the new slides look different.)

I don't think the problem was recoil spring related.

(The slide doesn't take that much of a battering with a weak spring; it arguably takes as much or more battering when the slide slams forward -- and that would be made worse by a stronger recoil spring.)
