I'd venture to say that I've shot, in my lifetime which is ancient compared to most of you , hundreds of thousands of rounds in so many different weapons that I couldn't even begin to count. I've NEVER had a "jam" that couldn't be cleared in a matter of seconds. True, if the chips are down, you want zero jams, but if even mediocre weapons are not prone to jamming IF you recognize the weapon's weakness. For example, I have a POS little .25 that my wife wanted because it had PINK grips . It can't feed a HP to save it's life. So guess what? I only shoot FMJ out of it. Never jams on those. It's a POS gun that I'd NEVER carry for self-defense, so it doesn't matter to me. Point is that I've shot, found it's weakness, and worked around it. There are very simple things that can be done to most semi-automatics to help them feed more reliably and avoid the dreaded ammo sensitive situation. Besides, you can usually clear a jam by racking the slide back hard and raking a new round in. The only exception is if the gun is having mechanical malfunction, such as bad ejectors or double feed.

Anyway, that's my . Get the Glock and you'll be perfectly fine.

Hundreds of thousands huh. How old are you? Where all those rounds recreational or hunting/sporting? Just curious
