Each and every individual gun is just that, individual.ANY gun could be the 1 bad one out of the 3 gazillion flawless ones made by a company that everyone raves about....
Reputation has ZERO to do with a gun being reliable or not.It will either work correctly a satisfactory percent of the time (whatever you decide is acceptabe for you) or it wont, and putting ammo thru it it the ONLY way you'll ever get ANY idea of that individual guns reliablity.
Neither Gaston Glock's, nor J.M. Browning's reputation can fix a broken/defetive gun, nor can It bring me or a loved one back from the dead if it malfunctions because I trusted reputation instead of actual testing.
