Most of us on the forum give our guns the care they are intended to get.
Under these maintenance practices, most of the top brands remain as reliable as the Glocks.

Glock's stellar reputation, much like the AK-47 rifle, stems from it's ability to remain reliable with almost no maintenance. In wartime conditions, Glocks keep running, like the Energy Bunny. However, Colt, Sig, and Beretta have also done well in those conditions.

I will also agree that Glock does stand a bit above the others. But, give them due credit too.

None of us know of a semi-auto pistol in common use that has no failures, ever. Even Glocks fail.
I believe most of these guns will meet the needs of the vast majority of us. We don't all shoot 1,000 rounds a month. Some of us have so many guns that they average about 200 rounds a year. 😁

If SHTF does come, I'll take my AK-47 and Glock 19 for sure. If I'm driving, I'll also take my Colt AR-15 and CZ P-07 along also.

Glock has a slight edge on reliability, but that doesn't keep me from sampling the other available goodies. It's not like I'm only allowed one gun -- Yet.

I have six S&W pistols, I'm very satisfied with all of them. I have about the same number of Glocks.
If I have to Grab N' Go, the Glock 19 in right where I can get it.
