In the early years, cracking was not uncommon.
One of titaniums weaknesses is with high temperatures. That's why it's often not used in suppressors and if it is, it's not full auto rated.

As for guns, I have a Taurus snubnose 44 Special made with a solid titanium cylinder and frame. (Kinda weird when you have a gun that a magnet won't stick to.) Barrel is a steel liner and titanium shroud. 19.5 ounces 5-shots. Not hard to shoot with the ported barrel.
