Alloy frame Sig P230...

I just got a call from a friend with a Sig P230 .32ACP w/ alloy frame. (I think it's alloy because it feels light for a pistol of this size. However, I could be wrong. I've only seen it 3 or 4 times.) She asked if Cor-Bon (or any other high speed ammunition) would damage the frame. I told her to have fun an go ahead and shoot anything she liked and that I doubted ANY .32ACP would hurt her pistol. Realizing that saying that was just a guess on my part, I thought I'd ask if everyone agrees. I mean it's a .32ACP fired from a weapon that is usually chambered for .380ACP. Seems like the little auto would last forever ~right?
Thanks,
KR

The 230 likes them hot, as hot as you can find.

Not owning any Sigs yet myself, I hate to portray myself as an expert on the brand. I didn't want to tell her something and find out later that I was wrong. She's a new shooter who likes her P230. I expect she'll get something bigger this winter. The only alloy frames I own are revolvers.

I would think it depends on how much she shoots. I mean shoot enough of anything and it is going to eventually affect the frame. I doubt she will put enough Cor-Bons through it to do any damage.

Get Wolff recoil springs for the little Blow back gun....see what spring works with the gun in the heaviest weight with all ammo...then youre better off.
Shoot well.......
