was any type of data on failure rates between the two.

I shoot very little factory ammo so this may not mean much but My stock G21 has never failed with any factory rounds. I don't recall any failures with my 1911 & factory fodder either.
BUT! I can tell you this, when considering reloaded ammo, the Glock is persnickity and took me awhile to get reloads to work in it. At the range I would save the Glock rounds that jammed to the side, and fill up a mag with them to shoot them in my 1911 and it would fire them just fine, all the time.
So if you don't reload mebbee the Glock is for you. If you do reload or think you may have to shoot reloads someday for lack of any factory or whatever, then a 1911 makes more sense.
For that reason I consider the 1911 more reliable than a glock.
