Ok, so I tried field stripping my gun before checking out any videos, I briefly read the manual and decided it didnt seem too hard. When pulling the slide away from the gun the "take down"button", spring, and firing pin ejected across my room. Not fun, AND THEN I wasnt sure where to put them back, lol! Glad I came across your video!

[CenTexSurvClub]

Great video! Oh and for those of you who are saying the spring is in the wrong place, your wrong, thats where it goes, he is correct!!!

Nice video I just purchased this very same model in all black. I got a chance to shoot 10 rds of federal ammo but quickly found this gun will jam every other rd. Im not impressed at all yet but we'll see after i shoot more ammo brands. Thanks for the take down video it definitely helped

[euparkeeria]

@awomansworld123 I just got this gun today, I friend needed money and sold it to me. Its in REALLY rough condition, it had 5 rounds in it. I fired every one of them off off without a hitch, I hope I dont end up with the same problem. Im not sure what ammo was in it though, it was what ever he already had in it...

[Hind135]

Thanks, I just bought one of these. This is a great video!

[skinsfantim]

Chris.. The reason you had to fiddle with it while putting it back together is you had the spring on the barrel, and it goes under the barrel.. I don't think I would want to shoot it the way you put it back together... You put it back together all wrong!!

[jwhyte317]

LOL dude had the recoil spring in the wrong place LOL

[piperboy350]

pos...lol. get a bersa

[chris22824]

I was out shooting mine today. I never tired Stingers. I use mostly CCI Mini Mags.

[GunNut12680]

hey i just bought one of these...im scared to shoot cci stingers thru it thinkin itll damage the gun.

[chris22824]

The snap caps are used to "dry fire" the gun. It gives the firing pin something to hit as it would if there were a round in the chamber. Dry firing a rimfire gun is not really good for it, this is why we use the snap caps. I hope this helps.

[Fujisuka]

he has the spring in the wrong place. The spring goes under the barrell. lol

[202trappking]

thanks

[GunNut12680]

sweet looking little gun..very Walther PPk like

[GunNut12680]

i hate the way these style guns re assemble..my bersa 380 is a PITA to put back sometimes..but the takedown is much easier

[14340420]

do you need the clip to do it

[chris22824]

No, you can do it without a clip.

[chris22824]

Yes, I sometimes use a spent casing to do that.

[glock22fyi]

Can you use the caseing of a spent round instead of a snap cap?

[chris22824]

You can find snap caps at your local gun dealer or do a google search for them.

[dozzy000]

@chris22824 what are snap caps for man? thanks.

[ugslamma]

Very good video where would I find a snap cap...never heard of one,picking up my ja-22 in three days. thanks

[chris22824]

This gun has about  500 rounds through it.

[FergusonTO35]

How many rounds have you put through it so far?
