IIRC, Caspian gets their castings from Pine Tree Castings (a Ruger subsidiary). They probably ARE bull-strong, whether it's needed for a 1911, I can't say.
So are those castings strong?
As strong as forged?
AND THEY ARE OFF!!!
😉😉😁😁😁
I'd ask - does it have to be? Taking Larry at his word and I generally would - 1m rounds of 45ACP shot by Delta in 1911's (unknown if that's a year or what) and he can't remember a single Caspian frame crack or issue. Could it possibly "not crack" more? I don't know.
I'm guessing you aren't tuned into the "Cast vs Forged" debate?
Or the gnashing of teeth Lemming referred to with his MIM comment?
Mostly BS. Virtue signalling crap from old nitwits who fight any change.
It worse than Stihl vs Husqvarna.
Cast vs Forged can go back and forth.
There are caveats......
At least with saws,
Husky is easily the best.
Even though Stihl is darn good!😁😁😁😁😁😁
