Which handguns did TheYankeeMarshal identify as 'turds'?

What are the main criticisms of the Glock 44?

The Glock 44 is criticized primarily for reliability issues, including malfunctions and parts breakage, and its utility as a .22 LR semi-automatic is questioned when compared to revolvers in the same caliber for dependability.

Why is the FN Five-seveN considered the top 'turd'?

The FN Five-seveN is ranked the top 'turd' due to its high price, perceived 'plasticky' feel, and the limited civilian availability of the specialized ammunition required to make its 5.7x28mm caliber effective against armor.

What makes certain 9mm revolvers inefficient according to the speaker?

The speaker criticizes 9mm revolvers built on standard frames not specifically designed for 9mm, citing inefficient long forcing cones and the inability to swap cylinders as drawbacks that waste the frame's potential.
