  Ill take a look at the others. thanks for the info on that all. Sounds like it might just be a per gun issue, each just has its own flaws if it has any.

When it comes to reliablility, ... more »

  Torgo,

If you are looking for a simple .22 buy a revolver. They typically hold as many (or nearly as many) rounds and have virtually no feed problems.
My reason for having and keeping ... more »

  Are there that much ammo feed problems with this gun? I am really looking at one as just a simple .22 cause of its size, good for both my wife and myself, but with the amount of ammo problems I am hearing, I am starting to think this could be a mistake

  I've asked this a couple of times but does anyone know how you go about starting a discussion about a pistol not listed? I just bought a Walther PK380 and love it. There must be some other PK380 owners out there.
