Guy on a job handed me a 380 today (he was showing it off) barrel first. I wouldnt have minded.... But it was a jennings...
I just about dove outta the way.

Check out my $40 380!
No... Dont do that

The muzzle is probably the safest end on those things.

Not with the slipping sears on those things.
I had a 22 that would go full auto if you bumped it.

I chambered a round on day and the jarring of the action made the sear slip. I shot the kitchen table and the bullet came back and hit me in the chest.

But they are woefully inaccurate and unreliable. ..and I was joking.
Totally agree that the muzzle end should never be presented unless you have to defend yourself, but those things are horrible.I picked one up at the hardware store just because it looked so crappy and I swear they are mainly cast and not an investment casting either. Pretty sure it was die cast.
Just horrible.


Edit: I gently placed that thing back on the counter and walked away. You could even feel the parting lines from the casting process....just horrible.

They are cast zinc.

They are cast zinc.

Figured that was about the composition.

Range bag is packed. Another half cup of coffee and I'm off.

I once fixed a firing pin with a finishing nail and some lead solder. Just so it fired at least one time to sell.


BTW, still on patch, haven't smoked all week except for Sunday night as I drank the leftover liqour 8n the bottles at work (the tiny bits left in each bottle before they put a new one out.)

I had a bit of, makers, ketel 1, new amst. Titos, crown, fireball, honey jack and walker red. Had about 4oz combined. Drank it and then smoked a big 3\4 full butt from ashtray outside.

.don't judge me, I'm from the YO.
