Apparently all the reloading gear and components I've purchased because I keep buying ammo instead of just rolling my own.

I bought one of these well I took it on trade for 50.00
A Jennings 22LR . IT was a " awesome paperweight " it was like new
yet would not cycle on rounds no matter what ammo I tried.
I bought it as a novelty and eventually just got rid of it.
I also bought a Taurus PT-22 or geees another piece of crap, or it would cycle and pinch and jam near every round and was loud as heck. It was cool looking but dang should have bought a Walther instead.
I have no more pocket 22lrs some times I miss the old jenning was quite the conversations piece.
Like hey wanna see a total piece of crap ?> LOL LOL

+1^^^ to the PT-22, totally forgot I bought that thinking it might be a good small pistol for my aging mother, huge mistake.
She couldn't hit a paper plate from 10' away more then half the time. I think I am a decent shot with a handgun and I had a difficult time hitting anything with it - had to pull the trigger very slowly and consistently (heavy trigger with a long pull) to hit anything, and it jammed.
The complete opposite of a good pocket gun.
Heres a good chuckle for some, I went to Cabelas and bought some ammo, ok no biggy.
I bought two boxes 45 ACP, problem is I do not own a firearm that uses that kinda ammo.
I didnt have my reading glasses with me and the box was near the 40SW which I do have.
I got the car my son said hey dad.............? Well good thing I didn't drive all the way home
100 miles away. Being I bought it just 10 minutes earlier they let me return it. ( normally they don't take ammo back) Guess they felt bad for me getting old LOL. I know keep a small foldup glasses with me just in case.
I bought one of those a long time ago and it wouldn't hit the side of the barn at point blank range.I bought one of these well I took it on trade for 50.00

You know, the better solution would have been to buy a gun that uses .45
. .45s are the bees knees....
Ya......... thats a good idea.You know, the better solution would have been to buy a gun that uses .45
I actually had some of these do a very dangerous thing it would flip out a live round and pinch it in the chamber luckily they never did anything but one pinched the rear lip pointing straight up after that I said naw, i'm good. We had two of them bought at different times bad experiences with both . I they were cool lookin though I got after market grips and it looked nice but for us they didnt do well.I must have had a different experience. I've owned (2) PT-22's, sold them both, each time just to make cash for another purchase. I'd love to have one again. They do take a solid break-in time - a good 300 rounds, after which time they start to run really well. They also prefer round-nose over hollow point in my experience. And, if you are up to it, you can get the standard mags modified (by cutting down the follower - videos on YT) to hold 2 extra rounds.
I'd love to own one again someday. Accurate for me, after I practiced with it.

Yea we like our shield as well nice reliable and straight,I second this. .45s are the bees knees.... I do like my 9mm shield the most though- probably because its carried 99% of the time and shot the most because of that.
