I'm 65 years old and I remember years ago when it was a generally accepted rule that if you bought a new firearm (especially a semi-auto pistol) that you had to run 200+ rounds through it to break it in. And that being unreliable during the first couple hundred rounds was almost expected. You needed to run a couple hundred rounds through it to smooth out the internals.
Now days, it seems like people expect a gun to be 100% reliable straight out of the box.
Is this a valid expectation, or just wishful thinking?
Have new manufacturing methods allowed us to manufacture guns that are 100% reliable out of the box, or do people just have unrealistic expectations and just want instant perfection.
Opinions?
