1911A1 Metal Slides

I recently picked up a WE 1911A1 with a broken barrel bushing, so I bought a real steel bushing and modified it to fit. After that was done I tested the gun and after about 6 shots the barrel bushing broke through the front of the slide and the whole front end fell out. Now I have zero experience with GBBs so I've never seen this happen before, but from what I've gathered this could be caused by propane and a stong recoil spring? I was wondering:
a) Would a better quality metal slide would solve this problem?
b) What slides would be best/compatible with a WE gun?
