I believe this model is only chambered in .380 but they also have .22,and 9mm.

I agree it only fires standard fmj and its a heavy sob but for those who cant afford Glock or Kimber prices can get one this was a gun i bought when I was broke

[butchy586]

[Mr127superdee]

dont buy anything other than there 22 or 25 i have 2 of their 25 cals they are a bitch to take down but never fail

@branba88 It seems to me that a field strip of this particular weapon is extremely labor intensive(compared to others) and complicated, it takes me 10 seconds to field strip my Glock and have it reassembled and ready to shoot. I can do it one handed but it takes longer. What happens if you need to do a field strip in the middle of a gun fight cause of a malfunction? Yell at the guy "hey time out, my gun malfunctioned"

[butchy586]

i think people are commenting on this gun before fireing it, i got two of them and both wont run a full mag before a jam or some kinda malfunction.i have some basic gunsmithing skills and still cant getem to run

[branba88]

Amen! original poster I agree with everything you said I just bought one today. All you youtubers don't just believe the nay saying gun snobs. Most folks who talk ill about these firearms, either hasn't actaully owned one or they bought one when the company was going through some problems... changing management and what not. I feel these are a nice and simple gun with good user friendly design. Take downs a breeze I got it my first try after reading provided manual.

@Bosketman At a recent gunshow I saw this model chambered in .22, .25 and 380. The 9mm was a much larger model. I saw that it was available in blue, duo tone, brushed nickel, and nickle. They all sold for around 140 to 150 dollars brand new with two makes, trigger lock, manuals and box. PS thanks for a great review

Ha! Because the  firing pen is really so far off center it may not fire. Also if you carry one in the chamber for a while the spring in the firing pen will get weak and cause a missfire.

[harleyridermark1640]

Ha! This gun gets worse the more I use it. I use the recommended ammo. I clean it after everytime I come back from the range. It jams when it feeds, it jams when the spent bullet don't make it out of the gun, the recomm. ammo don't fit in the mag. and does'nt feed. The firing pen is so far off center sometimes it won't fire the ammo. The more you shoot this gun the worse it gets. I could not pass this onto someone else, I will take a metal grinder to it first.

I have a ja 22 and I gotta say im really impressed with the weapon. my friend has the ja 380 and it didnt jam up even once on him. I think all these people reporting jams are using cheap ammo. do yourself a favor and get some decent rounds.

[bigphreaking]

Worst POS ever. If you need a cheap gun, get a Hi Point. This is absolute junk and a jam o matic.
