Actually, I didn't say that it wouldn't stand up to mud. I said that it wouldn't stand up to all the enviromental conditions that a US military pistol is tested for. That included freezing temps, sticky mud (one part of the M9 trials was redone due to the mud not being sticky enough).
In those trials the failure rate for the 1911-A1 was just a few in several thousand rounds fired. You had one in fourteen rounds fired.
This demonstrates...?
Actually, remembering WAAAAY back to the jibe that started this, Admiral Thrawn opinioned that a tight gun like the HRT pistol may be delicate compared to a Glock. So a fair test for that would be to drop your gun on concrete and see if it cycles with the match bushing dinged or a tightened frame rail banged a bit. A military gun would, because the bushing and rails have plenty of clearance.
