I am surprised that FN was not an option! That would have been my first choice. I'll bet there are more people who carry FN's than Bersa's or Bonds. (Nothing against those brands, I just don't think they are that common.) Just my .02 worth!

I have more Colts than other manufacturers followed by Ruger.

FN is on there now...I tried to include everybody...NAA comes up on here a lot so i figured i would cover as much ground as possible.

Thanks I changed my vote. 😀

If it came down to one and one only carry gun, I'd have to go with a Glock. The trigger and grip don't bother me at all. But it's nice to have options.

 

[G-man*]

I didn’t vote, because I can’t boil it down to one.

All of the big name brands like S&W, Colt, Glock, CZ, Walther, are guns I trust.

However, if I could only have one, it would be a Glock.

I have multiple carry guns and if I carry them I trust them completely (or I wouldn't carry them). For this poll purpose if its only for carry guns then Glock as that is what I carry the most. If it is just for manufactuer then then I am 100% on the Beretta train....

Interesting...So what make Beretta stand out VS Glock as a manufacturer for you?

 

[Wild Onion]

I trust other brands, but because I own more Smith and Wessons by a wide margin, I'll go with that pick.

 

[SFury]

I did not vote. I'm torn between Glock and S&W. Both are equally good choices for me.

 

[Mike1956]

Glock, based on its long history of reliability for me personally, and because of the availability of replacement/aftermarket parts and amenability to modifications.

 

[flh]

I trust all my cc guns if I can have only one it would be Glock.

 

[Mike1956]

I did not vote. I'm torn between Glock and S&W. Both are equally good choices for me.

S&W would be my second choice, but second choices weren't an option in the poll.

 

[Henry9008]

I probably have more Colts than anything else, but that being said, the two I have carried most to date would fall under Glock and Other - the other being the EAA Windicator. I believe that many of today's manufacturers put out good stuff, with the occasional dud.

When I first saw the thread title and poll, and read through the selections, I had to do a double-take to see that one particular manufacturer was not on the list. Which made me think, why didn't you just give a choice of 'Anything but (insert most-hated-south-American-company which shall remain nameless here! 😄)

 

[Pocketgunner]

It does not matter what manufacturer. It matters what "MODEL".

 

[Cornhusker95]

I trust all mine except for a recent purchase that i haven't ran enough.
If they don't pass my personal test than i lose a little money and get rid
of the problem.
I know this example has been wore out.... But i have the most rounds through my Kahr
so for round count and reliability the Kahr wins out if i could only carry 1 brand going forward.
That being said...You could be one round away from having issues at anytime.
Thankfully we have many choices and by the poll numbers i am not really surprised at results so far.

I was running my uber-reliable Glock 17 yesterday when the trigger didn't reset. After countless thousands of reliable rounds through it over the past eleven-plus years, the trigger spring finally broke at the trigger end. It was done running, period. The whole parts availability thing came into play. I have spares on hand. That said, until I got it replaced, the Glock was closed for business.

Kahr is definitely in the top, but again I have other guns that are built great but only a particular Model.

It is not a simple matter to answer your poll.

In general, I "trust" all of the top tier manufacturers.
However, within the top tier, there are individual models that I do not trust, or would not own for some reason not related to trust.
Example, I trust Beretta but I have never warmed up to the PX4 series because they look too futuristic or bland.
I love my Kimber K6s but I will likely never own a Kimber or a Beretta 92 semi-auto because I prefer Sigs for that. However, I am not a fan of the Sig P320 series.
I respect S&W revolvers (when they are good ones) but I prefer a built-like-a-tank Ruger GP100 or SP101.

Also, are we just talking about handguns?
What about shotguns and rifles?
For shotguns, I would probably go for Beretta or Benelli.
Rifle? I have a Winchester 30/30 lever action.

So, you see, it's not a simple answer.
