Had another .380Auto (Sig Sauer) in class today. As the shooter tried to rack in the first round, the slide stop fell out. The owner claims it's never failed before.
I've never seen a slide stop fall out of a gun before.
When I was at the range a while back a guy with a Glock 19 had his slide fly off the gun and out into the range when he fired a round. The slide lock spring had broken. I still thinks Glocks are reliable, just not perfect.
Without real numbers, in pretty much any area, ad hoc data tends to be influenced by confirmation bias. Glock guys ignore Glock failures as eccentricities of the platform, but would see S&W failures as being more frequent and being evidence of some design flaw. Same thing vice versa.
