I’ve never owned a semi automatic pistol that didn’t jam at least once, even with factory ammo.

My favorite pistol is my XD40. It jammed on me once last year when I was checking it out to take on a trip as a self defense weapon. I was really let down.

I wound up taking my S&W 357 revolver. It’s bulky, it’s heavy and only six rounds. But six rounds are better than playing with a jammed weapon while being attacked. I’m a fair shot, so one round would likely do the job for a single attacker.

I wouldn’t own one either.
Next gun is a Ruger Blackhawk in .44 magnum or .45 colt.

Have two vacqueros, both single action, in .45 but they can’t hot loads. Have a lever action in .45 which can. Another good back-up.

My High Point .45 has never jammed - 750 rounds so far. Not too many I suppose.
But if it did it will work very well as a club as it’s kinda heavy. ;)
