[QUOTE="marksman1941, post: 3081411, member: 68542"] You make good points. Every firearm you decide to use should be thoroughly tested and vetted prior to carry, and your defense ammunition shouldn’t likewise be extensively tested. Regardless of the action type, this should always be the process. Here’s where I diverge, and I will die on this hill; A quality semi auto running quality ammo, matched to the gun and throughly tested, is just as reliable as a revolver or a pump gun under the same conditions. We put thousands upon thousands of rounds through competition pistols, rifles, and shotguns every year. More than most folks will shoot in a lifetime. Malfunctions don’t happen in quality firearms with quality ammunition unless there’s major operator error, or the firearm has been neglected. The caveat I will allow is shotguns. Shotguns in general can be the most finicky, and a dirty shotgun with a sticky bolt can be a nightmare. Again, that’s user error at that point for neglecting the firearm, but it is the platform that we see the vast majority of our issues arising from. [/QUOTE]
