Which firearm, when field-stripped, has the least amount of parts? I would assume that the less parts you have, the less chance of a malfunction. My money's on some sort of pump shotgun, but I wouldn't know. I guess the closer you get to one hunk of metal, maintenance would become simpler. Try to keep the list modern, because if I said "all guns" then technically some 12th century 1-piece hand-cannon from China would also qualify.
Are guns with less parts generally more reliable? Is the simplest design also robust?
