Most of the guns that I would think of for this list are guns that I have intentionally avoided, so I don't have enough experience with them to comment intelligently.

Of the guns that I have owned, Taurus is the only manufacturer where I have had any issues, and that was with one gun out of 4 total. The other 3 Taurus guns that I have owned have been fine.

In all seriousness, I would probably recommend that a new shooter avoids Glocks, or at least considers guns other than Glocks. Not because Glocks are "bad" in any sense of the word (they're not). Rather because there are better options available for the Glock price point, and there are alternatives that are every bit as good as Glock's offerings at a much lower price point.
