Model 12 questions

[45NUTT]

Is the alloy frame just a bad idea? How often do they crack? I'm looking at some snubs and can't remember all the ins & outs.

Please cast your pearls of wisdom in my general direction.

Alloy a bad idea for a frame? Ever hear of a Colt Cobra frame cracking? I just avoid +P.
