Yep,  I even bought 2 extra mags for it and I shoot the crap out of it.  I have never taken the slide off cause ya got to pound out a pin.  I just run the barrel, brush every thing I can see and lube it up.  Darned accurate at 10 to 15 yards (I'm not worth a darn past that).  Out of the box it shot low and to the right about 8 inches diagonally.  After a dozen rounds or so I had her in and there she has stayed!

In no particular order, here is the short list of handguns that I would trust my life (and the lives of my loved ones) to:

Glock
Smith & Wesson
Sig
Colt
Springfield
Taurus
Kimber
Beretta

Whats in your top ten? Whats in your bottom ten? Feel free to list specific models and calibers if you would like.

  well not hardly any of these "names"  My picks would be any popular wheel gun , and any 1911 and my PT 140. Ive had personal weapons that were the exception but I would not put them in a catagory or promote them .

Based on what I've shot (which is limited) and some by reputation:

Glock (any model)
CZ 75b 9mm
a solidly made 1911 in 45 acp
Sig Sauer (most models)
Beretta 92FS

Don't have any experience with wheelguns, looking to change that when I get back.
