Isn't the P228 garbo and misfires?

[–] Tervell@hexbear.net 2 points 5 days ago

I think that's a problem with the more recent P320. The P220 series (which all of these are members of - the 220 is a single-stack, the 226 a double-stack, and the 228/229 are the compact variants) is known to be pretty reliable and durable, and as good old-fashioned chunky hammer-fired pistols, there's not much that can go wrong. Apparently the 320's issues mostly come about from its particular implementation of a striker-fired design.
