Sounds like some type of defect in the casting or forging process of the slide. Since I'm not familiar with Walthers, I wonder how their slides are made - cast or forged. But its funny how that thing cracked near the front.
Hey Kid, does that pistol have some type of barrel bushing at the front of the barrel - like a 1911?
