Well this ain't good... ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/SRzJjcVV/image.png) Why I dislike cast steel. Forged and milled steel for me. Found a new gun store and checked it out. They had a Springfield 1911 resembling this one. $599 NIB. I thought "terrific price"! Now I understand why. No, you have a prejudicial bias based on a moment in time. You understand nothing. And that is not to malign you.

China does not allow foreigners to own any real estate, not even the spouse of a Chinese citizen. Solution: do not allow Chinese nationals or corporations to own any US real estate - not even a home residence. China does not allow any foreigner fo own a majority of a business in China. Solution: force all Chinese businesses to have at 51% ownership by an American citizen. China makes it virtually impossible to transfer money out of China. Solution: do not any Chinese to transfer money outside of the USA.

Careful here,,, while i agree that China or any other foreign countries should own any ground near an air force base or strategic location. And the company’ i work for is dealing with this now. 30 years ago they bought 200 acres in Arkansas for seed production and research. That company got bought by chem china and now hucklebee says no. Does anyone know what the largest land is that china owns in the USA?

Well this ain't good... Why I dislike cast steel. Forged and milled steel for me. Exactly. Being a knifemaker I can see what happened here. Improper heat treatment….look at how large the “grain” is in the snapped off section. I can replicate the same thing by purposefully botching the ht on my blades. Excessive grain growth is a dead giveaway you screwed up. Overheating is the culprit. Precisely what Godogs said. It's not that the slide was cast, it's that the heat treating was f'd up. All steel has, at some point in It's manufacture, has been cast. Forging and milling won't prevent this kind of failure if the heat treatment is not done correctly.
