I heard this in reference to a sig p226. I guess there was a problem in the past with the alloy frame cracking.
Steel is not necessarily stronger or the alloy is not necessarily weaker... I think it has more to do with design. I think the SIG issue you are referring to was on very few. 40 cal weapons and it was actually a flaw and not the fault of the alloy itself.
