Are Our Oil Pressure Gauges Accurate?

Are Our Oil Pressure Gauges Accurate?
I've never seen mine below 40 psi until yesterday, when it was at 40. What concerns me is that it was wiggling a little, like I've seen old worn out engines do at 5 or so psi, or as if it it's low on oil. Has anybody else noticed this very slight pulsing of the gauge at idle?

I wouldn't say that the factory gauges are accurate as far as being "on the money" in displaying the exact number that corresponds with the actual oil psi, but they are an indication of what's going on. Now that I think about it, I believe that I've noticed my gauge flutter a little bit at idle.
Off topic and a completely different style of sending unit, but my gas gauge has fluctuated at all different RPM lol.
