Bottom feeders are 100% better than they where 30-40 years ago, still there is more moving parts so more that can go wrong. So to make up this deficiency the auto crowd seems to have to point and cry O.M.G. at each and every possible revolver malfunction. As a side note I know of a Makarov and at least 2 Glocks all with 3-4 thousand rounds through em with nary a hiccup.

Well first, you had a jam so not bs. I have been shooting for a bit longer than you, all kinds of revo, all kinds of co,petition & hunting. If anyone tells me they never had a failure then I can only say they arent putting a lot of rds downrange. I can fix a type 3 in a semi in 3-4sec. A jamb in a revo is game over.
