Regarding Post 19, there's more to the story as to why Beretta over SIG in the prior XM-9 (resulting in the Beretta becoming the M9 for the US Government).

It's likely more political and not due to SIG frames cracking as Beretta scored lower and also had its own failures. SIG's P226 guns aren't failing at 7000 rounds, with my personal P226 at over 15,000 rounds; P226 guns being selected by various military (previously to USN SEAL teams) and LE departments. Do realize the XM-9 trial guns would have been pre-production-modified prototype guns.

BTW, I'm not much of a SIG-fan and I'm still waiting to see what's going on with the various SIG P320 lawsuits/complaints in process. I just wanted to provide some more info regarding the Beretta vs. SIG issue.

I've no positive opinions regarding the Jennings guns and I may have booked one into evidence many years ago during my LE career. I recall brands such as Jennings, Jimenez, Davis, and others were brands not to ever recommend or consider.
