You're not going to believe this. It's not reall a reliability thing, but the gun didn't do what it was supposed to do.

The worst experience I have had with a handgun was with a Les Baer Super Tac.

I waited like 12 weeks and paid in the neighborhood of $2K for this pistol. When it arrived, it shot fine. Except that the point of impact was 5 inches to the left of the point of aim at 25 yards.

I shot it left handed, right handed, two handed, artificial light, natural light, no change.

Called Les Baer, Inc., and talked to Les himself. He said "That's not possible, send it back to us." So, now the owner of the company has called me a liar.

I send it back. Instead of re-fitting or replacing the barrel, or actually fixing the problem, they milled down the right leaf of the rear sight. So now the rear sight is asymmetrical, to make it shoot to point of aim.

To say I was not happy would be a significant understatement.

I called back and wrote a letter. They bought the pistol back, saving me the hassle of posting pictures of their "solution" on every internet board where I could secure a membership. I don't think that dealer has sold another LB in the three years since.

Now every other Les Baer I've seen has been flawless, and the one guy I know who had a cracked frame had his fixed first time, no problem. However, for $2K and a 3+ month wait, this was far from acceptable. Les Baer will never see another nickel of my money.
