I love revolvers. I've fired them for 25+ years and haven't had one failure that wasn't ammunition related. And I'll be the first to state that some of them haven't been in the most 'mechanically sound' state possible. I mean, I cut my teeth on an old Colt .22 with a barrel that was bent a half inch to the left. It took me 10 years to learn how to shoot straight!
That said, I have an automatic with me for about 12 to 16 hours of the day.
Looking at them from a standpoint of pure probability, a revolver has fewer moving parts. Fewer moving parts in a design mean that there are fewer moving parts that can possibly malfunction.

9mm. Because no matter how you try to rationalize it, .45 ACP is still for people trying to compensate for -something-.
