Kel-Tec P3AT: Jam-o-matic, cheap, the poorly designed ejector that liked to disappear while cleaning... oh so frustrating. I bought it against my better judgment because it was the only game in town back then. I've since moved on to greener .380 pastures.
Kimber 1911's: I've owned two, and both were unreliable. Upon breaking them down and inspecting their innards... I was appalled with the poor quality of the parts and fitting. After dealing with Kimbers customer service department and their inability to make their own handguns run properly, I realized it was time to once again move on to greener pastures.
HK P30: This was a fluke, I'm sure... but I bought a P30 last year and couldn't wait to shoot it. I was considering using it for a summer carry (breaking away from the 1911 for a while). It couldn't make it through a magazine of any brand of factory ammo without at least one FTF per magazine. The dealer took it back and gave me credit to another purchase. But this really soured me on the newer HK pistols. I've since decided that I'm sticking with 1911's for carry... no need to rock the boat.
