well 36 your half right... and i know the city probably doesnt buy you guys the best supplies but mine will jam 8 times out of 10 if im not running brass... but i have not jamed in years... the gun is designed to run flawlessly with brass and the spring tension is not set up for lighter more flexable crapy shell casings..on the range im sure your running junk shells and hey i can understand that but the gun didnt jam the shells did.. read up on the gun its clearly stated to run brass... dont give a gun a bad name such as the WHOLE POLICE FORCE says they jam.. when the WHOLE POLICE FORCE didnt bother to read the instructions....

Here's the funny thing, my dad and father in law have a lot of guns between them. They know what I am looking for and I know they own several guns like what I want but won't offer up. They never even use the guns! What's up with that! Collectors.....man they suck....guess that's what they say to me about my collections....
I own a SW 40 cal. I like it a lot! It feels REAL nice and hase a good grip/balance to it! Two things I don't care for though... 1. no safety! 2. the trigger is VERY strange and difficult to get used to. Otherwise no issues at all and it feels so comfortable to shoot. Good Luck!

Well I can't believe that I am already thinking about getting another hand gun but I have decided to get another gun to shoot along with the one I already purchased just because it's cheap to shoot. I've decided on getting a .22 but I have no idea what to get. Time to shop!

Oh yeah... one of my personal favorites. Ive rid many lands of pests and vermin with this potent caliber, 22-250, 223 & 220 Swift. Are you looking for a rifle or pistol? .22 rimfire or centerfire?
For plinking the old Ruger rimfire 10/22 is hard to beat. Browning makes a great .22 cal pistol if your looking for a handgun.

Thanks. I have a .22 rifle so I am looking for a hand gun. I didn't know Browning made a .22 hand gun. I will be going to shoot tomorrow so I will check out what the shooting range has in stock.
