Yeah... The criteria is somewhat flawed. "The Best" can be defined in many ways.
I will say that I have a soft spot for Ruger. They're not always the "best" firearms, but they're always moderately priced and reliable. I love my Ruger LCRX. I also have a MKII, 10-22, SP101, AR556 and P89. Other manufactures produce something "better" in each category, but for the price you can't go wrong with Ruger. Just my 2 cents.
