This question always sparks a debate on gun forums, but it is a fun subject if you don’t get too worked up about it. What’s the most reliable handgun of all time?
Owning a reliable handgun and knowing how to use it responsibly is vitally important for Americans. For every gun crime that makes that national news, there are dozens — perhaps hundreds — of instances when a homeowner uses a handgun defensively and it never makes the news.
Let’s face it, when a homeowner brandishes a firearm and has a burglar hold still until the police arrive, that’s just not as “sexy” of a story for the news media as instances when a gun is actually fired. But the truth is, that is how most defensive gun encounters begin and end — without a shot being fired.
It’s not just important to own a defensive handgun. You also have to know how to use it. The NRA offers a variety of training courses that are extremely inexpensive (sometimes free) and which are incredibly informative.
In a beginner’s class you’ll learn important gun safety principles, your state’s laws regarding personal defense, how to take your gun apart and clean it, and you’ll probably get some time in at a range with an instructor.
In more advanced classes, such as tactical shooting courses, you’ll have a blast running a couple of thousand rounds through your pistol until you know how to use it like a pro.
So what’s the most reliable handgun of all time? Check out this video for several good choices in answer to that question.

Sadly, FN will no longer manufacture the Browning Hi-Power. I bought one BRAND NEW in 1970 for $109.00 and loved it over 3 decades.
Of course, you have offended hundreds of thousands of 1911 shooters. I will admit, my first 1911 wound up as a semi-custom because it did not work out of the box but now it shucks and jives just fine. There is the added benefit of throwing that nice fat, heavy 45 caliber projectile.
I tend to agree with Col. Cooper when he said, “If you haven’t sorted out your personal defense problem after 5 or 6 rounds, you have probably lost.”
Heavy, bulky, but utterly reliable, Ruger’s P-85, P-89, P-95. And, I would be remiss if I didn’t mention the Ruger Blackhawk–never had a failure to feed—never jammed.
The Browning High Power and Browning’s 1911 Fill the bill for Simiauto pistols. The S&W Model 19 “Combat Magnum” is just fine for any purpose a Revolver can do.
