UPDATE to my previous comment about "What a disappointment!" (5/5) Apr 14, 2008 Dean E. Portland OR US
  Previously, I wrote that this gun malfunctioned, not feeding, jamming etc and basically "stinks."
Well after reading Bill's reply I kept the gun and did the break in. I'm now at about
600 rounds and the gun is firing much better! I do get some jams and failure to feed
but I think it's due to the blazer ammo that I using at the range (have to use that
"clean" ammo at this range).

The good news is that I found a hollow point that seems to work
perfectly with this gun! I've fired 72 rounds and not one jam or
misfeed. I'm using Federal's hydr-shok 165grain. Less recoil
too. It's a very smooth shiny bullet that is somewhat hexagon shape
at the tip so it doesn't get jammed on the "loading ramp" of the barrel
(my theory). My feeding problems were at the ramp.

They're expensive at over a buck a pop but for self-defensive
who cares. I'll keep testing and fire 150 rounds before I have
almost complete confidence in this ammo for self defense carry.

As far as accuracy this is a nice shooter.
