Use your google fu,,

Springfield uses cast & machined frames. There were problems with cracks like you describe..

You may have let the Queen sit to long to get any satisfaction, but I'm sure there are gunsmiths that can re-frame your M1A.

The imported Chinese ones also had problems, they had baddly shaped castings. So, there is a market for frames..

Good Luck..
