I'd like to ask the experts on this board their opinion of the most dead solid reliable pistol design ever developed. And today, when looking for dead solid performance what design and manufacturer is your "go to" guy. The question relates to RELIABILITY, IOW, every time you pull the trigger the gun goes BANG and is ready for another. FTFs and FTEs are the kiss of death.
A couple of ground rules: The pistol must be reasonably accurate. The pistol is assumed to be reasonably maintained (this would include replacement of springs, locking blocks etc.). No additional gunsmithing has been performed.
I'd like this to be a discussion of design and implementation of that design. The tilt barrel vs Stoner's rotating barrel for instance. All things being equal in the reliability department, the nod goes to accuracy. Remember, this is a discussion of design and implementation of that design! So please incorporate those considerations into your response.
