OK I just caught episode #2(I love DVR) of GI Factory which comes on the Military Channel. A Beretta spokesman made the comment and I quote "this is the Beretta M9,the most reliable sidearm ever made" The host of GI Factory also said that Beretta claims the M9 has never had a accidental discharge due to a defect in the gun. I have no experience at all with the M9 just sharing what I saw. I do like the finish of the M9. So would anyone like to comment on these statements? They showed the making of the parts and assembly. Pretty standard stuff but they did show a govt. lot test which involved picking 3 random M9s and firing 5000 rounds through them consect. Nothing about the US military going elsewhere though! Oh yeah the host brought a new meaning to limp wristing,
