Arguably, no...and when my life is on the line reliability is my biggest concern.
Just my humble opinion, Sigs are VERY reliable also.

True dat and I don't like the way they look or feel either. My $450 RIA 1911 will do everything I need very reliabily. Star 9's are very cool too.

It's interesting you would say that. I always considered Glock to be the "Cummins" of the handgun industry with all the rest being Ford and Chevy.

Is there an Echo in here...or is it just Hoss??

Personally, I like my Glock 21...but the only other handgun I've shot in a long time is my friends Ruger P89 9mm. It's a nice gun, but I shoot my Glock better, and the power (and noise) difference between the .45ACP and the 9mm is unbelievable!

It seemed as though Dieseldude was having a hard time hearing me, so I repeated myself. Of course, it's not NEARLY as funny if I have to explain it.
