I've been shooting a lot of revolvers and a lot of semi auto pistols over the last 35+ years and in my experience, the failure rate is not that much different between them. The biggest difference is how you rectify the failure. Revolver, most of the time you're done and go home and take care of it. Semi Auto lock the slide back,drop the mag, clear the action, reload and you're good to go 99% of the time. I've only had one instance where I couldn't put my 1911 back into action. That was with the 22TCM barrel, the round was just plane stuck in the barrel and had to be knocked out with a cleaning Rod. RIA replaced the barrel and it's been perfect so far since I got it back.
