Mike,
I think the answer to your question is: You have to answer the latter to conclude the former.

But, I did ask about the "...best guns ..." (plural) as I don't think it's worth debating about which particular gun is the best. I was generalizing on purpose. For example, I think Perazzi has to be in the group of best guns in the world, as these guns seem to be either THE most durable/reliable guns around or dang close to it. And, to me, going bang reliably is a significant trait. The most finely fitted and polished gun inside and out, falls out of the running if it is plagued with poor reliability. Reliability has to be at least good before it can be in the running as one of the best, wouldn't you think? If your H&H, Purdey, Famars, etc., broke down more than a Huglu, you'd be pissed.
