I understand that there is a trade-off in just about everything and that nothing mechanical is perfect.
If I find a p365 I will buy it, but haven't laid eyes on one to date. MSRP for the unit runs about 20% of my weekly gross, and they are experiencing some mechanical failures.
In 1970, my father who did the same work that i do now, bought a model 27 S&W. It cost him a full weeks pay, IIRC. 2nd trip to the range and he had a mechanical failure. He was upset, but S&W made it right.
In 1970, durable goods were generally higher priced, but perceived to be of better quality. the difference was likely due to the cost of extensive cycle testing and evaluation.
Everything changes but nothing is new or different. Just a little variation on angle...
