You know, every company out there has made great guns, good guns, and stinkers. Not every stinker can be caught before it hits the consumer end of the pipe. Neither can every lousy car, or washing machine, or refrigerator, etc. Heck, you can't catch every lousy person before they do something wrong. We've all seen the 300,000 round Glock, and the one that went kaboom. The dead reliable Springer, and the one that wouldn't feed anything. I would imagine, with Beretta being in business longer than anybody, they've probably had more guns screwed up in 400+ years than a company that's been around since the 1980's.
I've been lucky; every Colt, Glock, Ruger, S&W I've ever owned has run just like it should. The only POS I ever had was a Wilson. I know, that's rare... but how many guns have they made? Many, but not as many as Colt has made in 150+ years.
If you get a great gun, enjoy it, depend on it; if you get a good gun, enjoy it, but don't trust your life to it; if you get a stinker, get it fixed, or sell it, but at any rate... kwityerbitchin'.
I shall now remove myself from the soapbox...
