You can get better reliability than a plastic slide if you get one of those fancy $300-$600 titanium slides that weight the same amount. But that's a whole other pistol in cost.
Point is, the lighter slide takes less gas to cycle, so you get more efficiency, and most importantly, better cold weather performance.
Personally, I'd rather have my pistol work every time i pull it out of the holster, otherwise what's the point of having a pistol? lol
Some metal slide guns CAN be a great mix of functional, cool, and reliable. And some plastic pistols can be junk. But it's important to know what you want before you buy it.
