Never had a complaint from the customers who bought them. Jimenez moved manufacturing operations from California to Nevada in 2006 where it has continued cranking out inexpensive guns ever since.Jimenez Arms and its predecessors, Jennings and Bryco, have been producing cheap pistols like this .380 since the 1970s.This newest bout with bankruptcy in the Jennings-Bryco-Jimenez line of succession is likely to disrupt Kansas City and Everytown’s legal efforts.

Even though it is of all metal construction, it just feels cheap.
Accurate at about 25 yards, haven't had a chance to shoot it at any other distances yet.Pull the slide halfway back and pull the trigger.

I was very happy with how it performed.
I don’t have large hands, but even with the grip extension on the magazine I really struggled to find a way to hold this gun in a way that would allow me to not only shoot it comfortably, but to take quick follow up shots on a target even in a non life-threatening scenario.The sights — ugh.
