I'd quote Robocop 3 and say "How does it feel to be a rocket scientist?"

When I used to hang out on airsoft message boards, I heard many gun stories that smelled like BS. These stores weren't necessarily "ridiculous" individually, but collectively, what struck me as ridiculous was the absurdly high number of (mostly) teenage boys who claimed to have fired weapons that most gun owners can never hope to go near in their lives. Everyone on a typical airsoft message board has fired full-auto M4s and H&Ks, yet almost nobody's ever heard of (let alone shot) a Ruger 10/22.
In general, I find that when airsofters talk about real guns, they sound like virgins talking about sex.

But it would seem more logical that it would be the frame, it being made of alloy instead of the steel slide. Last edited by predator20; 08-12-2010 at 02:32 AM. |

It was indeed the slides that were cracking, around the locking lug area. They have to cut out the slides on the inside so the locking mechanism will work (which is in turn what makes the guns so bulky and top heavy). The DOD had a few examples that broke and caused the rear of the slide to fly off, though these were mostly French made slides which had poor metallurgy, and Beretta pistols made in the USA rather than Italy where the standards were different. Thus bore the 92FS, which is EXACTLY the same as the 92F, but the hammer pin is oversized on the right side, and a cut is made into the slide. This is the "slide retention device" that predator20 mentioned, just a bigger hammer pin and a cut. He's also right about the Brigadiers, they are just 92s with heavier, beefed up slides. Frames cracking is a myth and nothing else. I and no one else I've talked to has made reference to or talked about frames cracking. The slide deal is more common knowledge, though.
