I think Glocks reliability rep is a bit overblown. My friends G22 was shooting to the left last week because the rear sight started drifting. It was loose enough that you could move it with finger pressure. That has happened a few times during quals, once with mine. I replaced the factory sights on my G23 with Mepros that were properly installed and that fixed that (not a bad gun, very accurate for a Glock). I've seen a kaboom before, that was disconcerting. Some of Glocks QC problems are well documented but they never seem to hurt their PR very much. Not saying they are not good, just ease of the throttle a little Gockophiles. I have to give a +1 on the Rugers. I worked in firearms retail for a while and sold more P85s than anything else, I never got one back for service. I sold less S&Ws back then than anything else and got them back all the time, I hope they straightened that out. I like people to stay in the top shelf, Sig, HK, Glock, XDs, CZs,. All are reliable enough that you can then concentrate on getting the fit and features you want/need. That's what it's really all about. Personally I like my Kimber Custom Classic series 1 and my SA 1911 SS Loaded. Haven't had a hiccup from either and I bought them back in the late 90s.
