Which of your semi-autos have NEVER jammed?

[Smoke]

My Kimber has never jammed.

I would also like to add that my 2 Para Ordnance P14.45's have never jammed. (one was LDA, one SA)

I'm about 4000 rounds on the P.O. single, I traded the LDA, and only 1000 or so on the Kimber.

I'm sure it is only a matter of time though on any of them.

ALL SEMI-AUTOS WILL JAM AT SOMETIME, FOR SOME REASON. Usually at the most inconvienent time.

 

[NJ3]

Out of 6 Glocks I owned in 10 years, none of them had a malfunction of any kind.

2 - Glock 22
1 - Glock 23
1 - Glock 27
1 - Glock 36
1 - Glock 30

 

[4thHorseman]

You guys are lucky, I never had a semi auto that didn't jam. I had Glock 19, Para ord P14.45, Sig 239, and Colt 1911 45.
The guns that I have that NEVER have jammed are ALL my revolvers. Approximately 20 of them of all different calibers.

 

[Duke of Lawnchair]

Thousands of rounds through my 9mm Sigs, no jams.

 

[Old Fuff]

Never EVER jammed?

The few relics that I don't shoot.

 

[Pendragon]

My Valtro

 

[JeepDriver]

I voted for Sig, My Sig 239 has over 2000 rounds in 3 months, no malfunctions of any sort.

But I also have a Browning Hi-Power MK III-That has not failed me either.

edited to say: The BHP failed me yesterday. After market mag caused 3 FTF/FTE all on the first or second round. I've taken that mag out of the rotation until I can fix the problem.


And A

Bersa Thunder 380. Only about 1000 total in a year w/o a malfunction

But the one I have had the longest and the one that has always been there is the:

Ruger P95, I have never had a problem but my wife has limp wristed it twice.

 

[blades67]

My SIG Sauers and my Glocks have never jammed. My Kimber only choked on some reloads that had a COL that was too long, but never with good ammo. It even feeds empty cases.

 

[Mark IV Series 80]

Hello JeepDriver,

You could have multiple-voted on this poll, but if you've voted already, you can't go back and vote again.

 

[Grampa]

I've got two:

Sig P239 9MM (lots of different ammo tried)

Springfield Armory PB9108L (1911 Milspec) (have only fired 230 gr. hardball, and 230 gr. lead RN in it)

 

[hansolo]

My S&W 910 9mm: only about a thousand rounds through it so far(bought it last month).....no hiccups of any kind. I have fed it about six different factory loads(including 2 brands of HP)and a buddy's reloads today. No jams, no way; I love it!

 

[CleverNickname]

My G19 with about 12k rounds through it has never jammed. My G26 with about 2k rounds has never jammed except for one FTF due to a dud primer. My OTHER G19 has never jammed, because it's NIB.

 

[Zak Smith]

Unfortunately, I think every centerfire auto I own has jammed, FTF'd, FTE'd, or something somewhere along the line. Between out-of-spec reloads, shooting until completely dirty, "break-in", operator error, bad mags, etc, all have seen at least 1 jam.

This list includes: HK USP40, Glock 19, 23, 27, 32, CZ-75B-SA, CZ-85 COMBAT, CZ 75 COMPACT, BHPs, Makarov.. I think that's it.

But here's how I'd rate them:

Tier 1- virtually perfect, no jams with factory ammo: BHP, Glocks, CZ 85 COMBAT, HK USP40, one of the CZ Compacts.

Tier 2- maybe one jam, or premature slide-lock, in 500-1000 rounds: CZ-75B-SA (fixed), a Bulgarian Makarov.

Tier 3- unsuitable for self-defense, jams at least once every 100 rounds: one of the CZ 75 COMPACTS, E.G. Makarov.

Please note that these are my own experience with several particular pistols. To be "promoted" to Tier 1, a pistol must shoot flawlessly for at least 1000 rounds. Only Tier 1 weapons are used for carry or self-defense.

[22x9]

Kel-Tec wasn't on the list, but mine has jammed since I've purchased it.

 

[XavierBreath]

If you count ammo failures, I have to take my HK .40 Full Size USP off the list. I have had two case failures and therefore FTE shooting Wolf (same box) out of it. Any other ammo has been flawless.
The USPc in .40 has not jammed, but I haven't shot Wolf out of it.
The Beretta 92 and Mini Cougar have not jammed at all. (Again, no Wolf Ammo).
The Kahr has also been flawless, but is not listed.
The Desert Eagle is still a bit to new to say, but no failures so far. (less than 1000 rounds).

 

[David S]

Walther P99. still rather new, but this is my second one. the first one i had about a year and a half and it jammed maybe twice, but it was because i was useing questionable ammo. in fact it fed it properly, but the round was a dud.
i have been useing the same winchester white box target 9MM in it since i got it, and ran a few hydra shocks thru it,,,,,have yet to have a problem out of it. Id dare guess that i have ran about 1000 rounds so far just to give you an idea........

 

[firestar]

Never jammed for ANY reason. In order of amount of ammo fired:

Ruger P95

CZ-40
(I sold it to a friend and it still hasn't jammed and I doubt it will, it will feed empty brass)

S&W 59,
I didn't shoot it much (200-300) rounds but it never jammed. I think it would have at some time.

My Beretta 92fs has had the slide fail to lock back on the last shot and I thought it had a problem but then I noticed that I was holding the slide down with my left thumb. Also once I put a Wolff 9mm cartridge in it that the bullet had backed about a quarter of a inch down the case and fired it. I know it was stupid but sometimes we do things even though the voice in the back of your head is telling you 'no'.

It fired and REALLY kicked! It felt like a .357 mag. The case was stuck fast in the chamber and I had to pound it out with my car antenae. I'm an idiot. Other than those things, the Beretta has never jammed. I don't think it was the gun's fault but I didn't vote for it because you said "never jammed for any reason" FWIW, I think the Beretta is my most reliable gun next to the Ruger P95.

 

[firestar]

Also, I think you should automatically take the number of votes that Glock gets and cut it in half. We all know that people who own Glocks can't be trusted.

 

[Artful]

Sig 225 in 9mm - Factory & reloads
purchased used (was the under counter gun at a shop before we got it for my wife - I'm impressed enough I have ordered one for me.) over 1k fired

CZ-52 in 7.65x25 - Surplus loads only
purchased as arsnel refurb. over 500 rounds fired by me - unknown how many before me.

 

[Minute_Of_Torso]

Never, ever, ever jammed with >200 rounds through them:

KelTec P11
Ruger P97DC
Ruger 22/45
Sprinfield Mil Spec 1911A1
IAI 1911A1 Clone
Glock 21
Glock 23

Jam-o-Matics (at least for me):

C Daly 1911A1
Star PD
Ruger Mark II

 

[stretcharmstrong]

so far my Kahr MK9 has been 100% reliable in about 300 rnds. Time will tell. My Kimber Stainless Target II has been VERY close but had a faulty mag from the factory in the beginning which failed once per mag and it had 1 FTE (w/a good mag.)

 

[Schuey2002]

Out of all of the autoloaders that I've owned, the only one that has NEVER jammed has been my Glock 21..

Guns that have NEVER choked...

Astra 600, 9mm P. Built 1943. Went "Click" once. Round had no primer. Ammo failure, not the gun.

Colt 1903, .32 ACP, built 1919.

E.G. Makarov, 9 x 18, built ?

1912 Steyr-Hahn. 9mm Steyr/Largo, built 1913.

FEG PA-63, 9 x 18, built ?

CZ-50, .32 ACP, built ?

Glock 32, 357 Sig, purchased NIB.

S&W 1066, 10mm, built ? This gun choked ONCE, when it suffered a complete case-head seperation, leaving the front two-thirds of a case in the chamber, which prevented the next cartridge from feeding. When the cleared gun was tilted up, the fractional case dropped out. Ammo-related failure, not the gun's fault.

They're ALL (Except the Glock.) used. (Obviously! )

They all run EXCLUSIVELY on FMJ, with the exception of the .32 ACP's, which have each eaten a full box of PMC JHP's with no issues.

All have at least a 200-round track record with the exception of the Glock, which is at 500+, and the Astra, which has a 1500 round count while I've owned it.
