My wife's put over 1200 rounds through her G19...600 of which were out at Front Sight, the NV based shooting institute in their intensive four day Defensive Handgun Course...minimal cleaning and absolutely 100% reliability...not a single malfunction. For the first 500 rounds, when new, I refused to clean it, to test its reliability...no issues there either. It's not her carry piece, (she's got a S&W 637 for that), but shoots it extremely well over our home grown defensive course. Accuracy at 10 yds is very good, indeed...I get 1" clusters slow fire from a Weaver Stance...that's as good as I can do with my eyes and age. Hope you enjoy it. Rod BTW, I've had good luck with three guns from Budd's. No problems.....
