In an article in Ammerican Handgunner they talked about the pistols
used by shooter's from South America. Since the .45 is banned, they
have to use 9mm or 38's. The most popular 9mm is the Colt Gov. Model
because they claimed the Browning falls appart.

As far as the S&W's reliability, they stayed in the running with the
Sig and the Beretta in the Armys's test. They were eliminated by
by some technical screwup that is being challanged in the courts.
They are also used by many police departments.
