Walt, it seems a bit far-fetched to me as well. Cracked frames on Tanfoglios are rare - I've never seen one. I also haven't read any accounts of crack slides on the squared off slides - just the rounded ones which have less metal.
I follow the cracked-frame/slide stories because I have a Tanfoglio Stock 10mm, so I'm just passing along what I've read. I don't normally shoot hot 10mm through my Stock - just factory 10mm and reloads loaded to ordinary factory specs. However, I have fired a couple of 10mm defensive loads through it with no problem. I don't reload and defensive rounds are just too darn expensive to shoot.
In any event, I am quite impressed with my Stock 10mm - I'm sure the newer .45's and 9mm's are just fine.
