I think that one's history with a specific gun is far more important than the reputation of the brand. If you read the internet gun forums, you'd assume that Glock must make a completely reliable firearm. My Glock 19 had serious ejection problems. It was not reliable (happens to be a recurring theme with Glock these days, but that's another issue). The converse is also true. The brand itself can have issues, but if your gun works well, that's the important thing.
Most of the guys that I know, these days now that people carry firearms more than they used to and given the number of cops that I hang around with and shoot with, will usually never carry a gun of any brand for self defense unless they have a few hundred rounds through that specific gun so that its reliability can be determined. Man, it never used to be that way. Used to be...you bought a Sig, or a S&W, or a Beretta and you could just bet your life that it was going to be reliable enough to trust your life with. Now...not so much.
