B&T TP9 Reliability?

[Gurkha]

Hi,

I was wondering how reliable the B&T TP9 is? It sounds pretty interesting but I am concerned about reliability as I have heard mixed reviews. The number one, most important thing to me is reliability.

I found this youtube video from the states which is claiming they are not reliable. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aITa_-Ts3kI

How do they compare to other pistol caliber carbines for reliability such as the FAMAE SAF-200 and others?

Thank you

I've used TP-9's and have never had a malfunction. Very high quality Swiss made gun. The only problem is the mags are pinned tight. Getting the fifth round into the mag takes a little extra pressure.

That sounds good to me. Is the problem of having the mags pinned tight possibly the reason why I have heard about some peoples mags cracking? I think they were cracking in the feed lips if I remember correctly.
