Forgot to mention. . . years ago I read that a very high percentage of rounds that failed to fire on the first strike, fired on subsequent strikes. I have tried to find the information when this subject has come up before, but have failed to do so. I have no idea what kind of research was done...

Is it overrated? Probably by those who use it as justification to buy/not buy a particular firearm. My opinion is that if you have a failure to fire at the time when you are most likely to really NEED a gun (i.e. a life and death situation) you're going to have enough adrenaline running...

Tied for first Sig and H&K, GLOCK second IMHO. HOWEVER. . . given that there is no garuntee that you will end up with an individual specimen on the upper end of the standard distribution of accuracy for a particular brand, I say get what you like the best and learn to shoot it well. They are...

Lol

I can't speak for any of the other H&K owners here, but I'd be a little bothered by the feeding failures. I've never run into an H&K that gave me FTF problems like that even when intentionally limp-wristing. Even when new, all mine (and those of friends) have worked perfectly out of the box...

Sheesh, hasn't anyone ever see a broken gun before? I'm sure I'll get flamed, but there are a lot more working Kimbers out there than there are Kimbers with broken slide stops. Does it suck that he paid what he paid and had his gun break? Yes. . . Should a $1K plus gun break that...

I'm a big H&K fan, but stating this might be going out on a limb. . . I'd say they are probably pretty comparable as far as service life is concerned. Shake

I'm sure Skunk or anyone else would recommend Langdon Tactical Technologies as appropriate medicine for your Beretta trigger. Shake

Several have commented on the relative sizes of the H&K vs. the SIG. The general perception out there is that the H&K is larger and therefore harder to carry concealed. . . Caliber/Capacity/Length/Width/Height/Sight Radius/Barrel Length H&K USP .40/.40 S&W/10/7.64/1.33/5.35/6.22/4.25...

I think you answered your own question. . . Shake

More accurate? :scrutiny: Shake

You could try here Shake

Here we go. . .

Maybe it would have been a better seller with THAT finish. . . :D Shake

rauchman, I'm with you on all counts there. My favorite handgun (from a shooting/reliability/functionality standpoint) is a full sized H&K USP .40 S&W. I own a lot of handguns, and I've yet to come across one that shoots as well as that one. I've spent a lot more on other handguns, but few...

Agreed 444. . . I failed to enter my choice for most "overrated" handgun. . . It would be EVERY handgun. Why? The general public (and many firearms owners) believe handguns to be better than they are for personal defense.

Are we listing the most overrated pistols or the most overpriced? In my opinion many are confusing the two. Who is doing the "rating" and just what are they "over" on? I'd like to see people respond with exactly what the supposed "ratings" are of the firearms they believe to be...

XavierBreath, It isn't my intent to "start anything", but in my opinion this: . . . almost makes it sound as though the customer is at fault for the whole deal. If it took longer to do a quality job, the smith should have conveyed that to the customer. I'm sure Greg would rather have...

:what: Greg, No way on earth I accept that gun and leave the store with it in that condition. Had I been in your shoes I would have demanded a full refund of the price of the work along with a new set of sights (off the gun, of course). Nothing less. Of course Moday morning...
