Here's something you might find interesting, old cobber.
Glock pistols, while considered by many to not be the prettiest gal at the dance, are noteworthy for their legendary reliability.
In fact, I once read of a shooting club passing a model 19 (9mm) between members, with them collectively putting 1 million rounds through it without cleaning it.
Wouldn't you know? It still fired.
I've used a Gen 2 model 22 (.40 S&W; slightly larger/heavier bullet, typically traveling a bit slower than a 9mm) for nearly 25 years now and, while I'm far below the 1 million round mark, it has never failed me.
Would you like to know the one thing short of physically damaging the unit that you can do to reliably jam a Glock time after time?

Another thing that just occurred to me is that the pistol I mentioned using above (the model 22, chambered in .40 S&W) is probably the very same model used by Tommy Lee Jones in US Marshals.
Did you know that the .40 S&W was developed specifically for this purpose (law enforcement)?
