Which gun was the LEAST reliable?

I had a S&W 915 that was possibly the biggest piece of crap disguised as a quality pistol I have ever seen. It shot patterns not groups, and after 50 to 100 rounds It would begin jamming several times per mag.
 
Without a doubt my Seecamp LWS32.

I was a fool to sell my 100% reliable P32 to buy it.

I truly didn't ever think I'd see those 2 sentences together. Granted, I also own a flawless P32, but I've had it up to here with should've bought a Seecamp if you want a mouse gun.:rolleyes: Guess that extra few hundred I saved wasn't a bad idea after all.;)

Thanks for the honesty.
 
Bersa Thunder

Had two break on me …

Bought a new Bersa Thunder – after the first time shooting it, the take down leaver went missing :confused:. Had the pistol replaced with a new one … the trigger broke :mad:. Twice bitten, I forked over some extra cash and replaced it with a Sig 232.
The Sig is great :)!!
 
Walther P22 that was just junk, and a Glock 27 that would not fire every 5 or so rounds, the firing pin wouldn't move. Drop mag, rack slide, insert mag, bang, bang, bang, nothing....wash rinse repeat.

My other handguns have been flawless, with the exception of ammo stoppages (cheap reloads)
 
TEC-9. I know, I was young and stupid. Jam-O- Matic P.O.S. Traded it and some cash for a T/C Contender. Best trade I ever made.
Also, a Taurus P92 9mm. During the first mag it locked up solid. Also rear sights fell off.First and last Taurus.
 
Llama made horrorific handguns. I had a Llama Commanche that rattled when you shook it. Before it was loaded! It spit something horrible, as the timing was off.
Stoeger was just as bad. I wouldn't feed anything. It should have been called "The Hunger Strike"
 
Kel-tec P3AT. Could barely get through a mag without a malfunction. Multiple sorts of malfs also, feeding and extracting. Kel-tec rates as my worst handgun BRAND also.

You know, I hate Kel-tec, with a passion, and I don't know why. They just look like junk, imo. However, I've had two gun store owners tell me that out of the three, Kel-Tec P3AT, Ruger LCP, and the new Taurus micro thing, they liked the Kel-Tec best.

I think something is in the water.
 
My S&W 1076 (bought used) developed a tendency to FTE after about 500 rounds. Fixed the issue by replacing the extractor. My S&W 1911 (also used) refused to go through an entire mag of FMJ's when I first got it. A free trip back to S&W and it's 100%. My S&W 629 broke its firing pin after a few hundred rounds, and again S&W fixed the issue for free.
 
Davis Industries P-32. I think they're called Cobra Industries now. I think I paid $65 for it. I would jam about every three rounds. I kept it in a drawer for about 10 years. It was so bad, that I couldn't even bring myself to sell it. It's at the bottom of a river now.
 
Para-Ordnance P14-40.

Worst POS I have ever seen. FTF every 5 rounds or so, despite numerous attempts to fix.

Dumped it for a Sig P226R, and have never looked back.
 
Microgunner,

Sorry to hear about the Gold Cup. The one I had was the only .45 I have ever known to chamber an empty brass. The only issue with the gun was the roll pin for the rear sight would get lost. . .
 
2 of them stand out, one an older revolver,one a new auto.

I bought a used Charter Arms .44 Bulldog, fired maybe two rounds and the cylinder jammed against the frame. Had to disassemble mush of the gun while it was loaded, ordered several small parts and re-assembled it, never got it so shoot reliably - traded it back where I had bought it.
Never bought another Charter, although I heas little but good about their .38 Specials.
The pistol was a factory new Taurus .22 pistol, the one that looks similar to a Beretta. It jammed repeatedly, shot almose 2 feet to the left. After several mags worth of trying different ammo, the mag released while it was in my pocket, dropping onto my foot when I took it out.

I cleaned it and returned it to the shop for a trade on something else, and have not bought a Taurus since.

High Standard snub 22 revolver in matte nickel-it's broke and I'm going to break it into pieces just like guitar man did.

Don't ask for it-the gremlin in this sucker is going to die in it.

A H&R 22 snub revolver-light strikes every other round-but she was cheap and shes so ugly she's purty.

You load it by removing the cyliner.

Makes me laugh everytime I take that cylinder out.

I'd keep it as a paperwieght if I can't fix it.

My Mauser HSC.

Dern thing only likes PMC fmj rounds.

Finding 380 rounds is like Raiders of the Lost Ark these days especially a certain new brand.

But it saved me and my wife from a carjacking one time and that was just by it being there and was sold to me by a real decent human being.

I'll keep that HSC too.

From now on though,I'm only buying guns made by companies still in business.

I was going to make a mistake and buy another Bobcat 21a Beretta (used) but my last one of those was a nonfeeding pain in my-well you know.

Eh,who knows?

Maybe I can fix the used one.;)
