I remember one school that I attended myself and another student got special awards for "No Malfunction". I was shooting a stock Glock 22 and other guy was shooting a DAO LE trade-in Beretta 92. At that school I saw a guy cussing his new Wilson Combat.

I haven't been to one of Yeager's class, nor do I know him, but he does have a few good points.
I attended a defensive pistol 2 class. I was pretty much the only student with a glock. Everyone else had a Sig P series, a Wilson 1911, a Springfield 1911, and a couple XD's. When we got to the end, we did the dueling tree. I was up against the guy with the Wilson. While he was M-F-ing his gun for stovepiping after running it all day, I finished off the dueling tree without a single malfunction.

Glocks work, they're proven to work without any "break in" or special treatment. Why you would want any less from a gun your life may depend on is beyond me.
