I rely mostly on revolvers. But, I have a 70 Series Gov't Model that has never failed(with a Colt Mag) as I can remember and I have put more rounds through it than any other gun. Revolvers can fail, they are designed and made by humans. I once kept a Model 29 in my headboard. I unloaded it, to take it to the range. I then pulled the hammer back, and the mainspring broke. A fat lot of good it would have done me if I had needed it. I have a Model 13-3 that broke the trigger notch off, rendering it useless as well. I have no use for autos that don't have a safety lever. My nightstand has a 13-3, and my truck has a highly disfigured BHP. The Browning has never failed to fire with any mag.
