[QUOTE="trbii, post: 1770936, member: 2449"] 100-200 rds of cheapest ball ammo I can buy, then 2-3 magazines of SD ammo with no failures tells me all I need to know when testing a Glock. I used to be a total 1911 user,(Bless Col. Jeff Cooper, may he RIP), until a horrendous failure to fire involving a wrong diameter firing pin in my prized new Rock River Arms 4" 1911A1 $1600.00 pistol right at the end of Marshal Lutons AP-1 combat pistol class a few years ago. After firing something like 500-600 rds over a two day period with zero malfunctions. Bummed me out and soured me on that platform after at least two decades of "worshiping at the alter". I deciding to embrace newer, more reliable technology after that. Never would have believed it, ten years ago I privately sneered at anyone who used the ugly brick. So confident I knew the only way. But I did'nt appreciated what the AK platform was good for back then, either.Changed my beliefs on that too. [/QUOTE]
