On a side note X-fddo (not to hi-jack your question)

I think the O frame vs Glock discussion has a LOT of parallels with the PC vs Mac discussions... The most obvious difference being the amount of work that is done "under the hood." I really think that most O frame issues at the range fall in a couple of groups. a) wanna-be smiths tweaking their guns and b) cheap ammo. With glocks, there isn't NEARLY as much for a wanna be to do. IE You need to have a higher skill level to tear them all the way down, and the guys shooting steel on TV don't tweak their glocks ANY WHERE CLOSE to what the O frame guys do, so neither do the arm chair smiths. Also, maybe it is just local, but i see a LOT more guys shooting wolf ammo out of NICE O frames than I see going through glocks...

The first, I'm pretty convinced on, but the ammo one may be just something I'm seeing here.
