That could happen with any gun someone didnt ,maintain and hadnt tested out at the range. Given how clannish and brand-loyal a lot of gunners are, it wouldnt shock me if about half the votes against the SCCY were cast because it wasnt a Glock 43, or something equally biased and stupid.

Bought it brand new. you have to wear shorts with a tucked in shirt), the LCP II will be a great option. Man, all I can say is when you mentioned the Pico, you sure messed up on that one. Theres room for disagreement, but probably only because some peoples pockets are bigger and can hold bigger guns. The Ring of Fire guns are small, super they do have a 200 round break in that they tell you to expect possible fails also. TTAG has some of the worst reviewers in history. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.

Ive been averaging one light hammer strike every magazine or two, that requires a second pull of the trigger to ignite, regardless of ammo brand. Also LCP. They know media though. These are not military combat weapons. I agree, the P3AT is my go to light carry gun. What a joke. YES, of course Id rate the G19 at least from a practical, hardcore perspective an obviously more robust, serious combat-capable CC piece, but when you think about it, here I am comparing a Glock 19 to a SCCY CPX-2 for certain situations and that HAS to be a compliment to the SCCY, in an offhand way (and dont accuse me of being a Glock fanboy I own diverse alternatives, and was actually very slow by choice getting into the Glock game.) For College Campuses! The LCP isnt that bad. The spreadsheet seems flawed to me. Think he went through that with customer service Ill give ya the mag though. Arguably one of the best and most popular pocket pistols, the pf9, was not on the spreadsheet. I found that many mags for the Hellcat where not cut properly with too much play at the catch. 400 rounds! Using that, Ive compiled a spreadsheet of the resultsby filtering down 200+ subcompact handguns, first by caliber (nothing weaker than .380 ACP), and then by size (nothing bigger than 5.77 long x 4.4 tall).That left 44 semi-autos, which I sorted by each guns average user rating. I think Jimenez and Lorcen companies went bankrupt. check the ammo?? After the 200 round break in if you have any, then yes you should be pissed. Have owned and shot most of them. Just keep shooting your pistol. . Glad I didnt see mine. As a back-up weapon to a larger pistol, the LCP II would also be a great choice as it has a very similar manual of arms to larger pistols such as Glocks while also being small enough to easily conceal carry as we have just seen.

WebBeretta Pico: Worst .380 In the World?! the Truth about Guns is one of the most biased groups around. The trigger is fantastic, and reassuring in handling and holstering (leather IWB) in ways that Glock is not. They fall apart with any kink of volume down range. I bought it because the idea of 10+1 rounds in 9mm was very appealing. I dont expect any pocket gun to be pleasant to shoot, but I ditched my Hellcat after experiencing multiple failures to eject two types of ammo. Got over 1000 rounds through it, and no problems. Painful to shoot, yes, but thats what you get when the gun barely weighs more than the bullet it fires. The .380 ACP semi-automatic pistol is one of the most popular categories of concealed carry weapons in the United States and has been for years. I wouldnt go smaller than a Glock 27 in .40 the recoil is too snappy. Bounce is not horrible but that along with size will take some of the enjoyment out of the session. Even your most expensive 1911s, Colts, S&W and Glocks will jam or miss fire from time to time. For its purpose, NOT Bullseye competition, it is a fine gun.
