Yeah, but unless you're planning on leaving your gun buried in mud and snow for a month at a time, reliability isn't necessarily the first thing you (as a civvie) should be concerned about. My SIG P226 is extremely accurate and reliable, but that's hardly the reason I bought it. I like SIGs because the shape of the grip and the layout of the controls conforms better to my hand than an XD, or a USP, or a Glock, or just about any other double-stack pistol I've shot. For me, that's the first matter of importance.
