my son owns one in 9mm.I dont personally like it but the 1st day we went to the range and ran 150 rounds through it with no problems.We both had decent groups especially being not used to it.It does fit into a niche.

yep. when I think back of all the sat night special priced guns over the years.. many have been discussed here.. bryco.. jenninggs, raven, lorcin.. haskel.. few get favorable comments. i think haskel is one of the few.. ( i have one of each.. haskel is the only good one out of the bunch! ).. then toss in hi point. cheap.. yet shoots reliably. the raven, jennings, bryco, and lorcins out there.. well... not so much..

My wife bought a jennings 25 3 years ago fro $25, and in the last 3 years she hasn't had the patience to deal with all the misfires and other jams the thing has to fire the 100rds she got when she bought the paper weight. That is usually the function it serves, place it on the paper targets at the range to stop them from blowing around.

bait gun.. the one you leave out for someone to snatch so they don';t dig thru your range bag for the real ones..
