    http://gun-parts.com/index.html/ can help you turn a $25 gun, which you paid $100 for, into a $25 gun, with the addition of $50 in new parts.

    AZgunnut, just my 2 cents, but I think you are crazy to use, sell, or otherwise have anything to do with that particular gun! I have owned one, and it was the best day of my life when I destroyed it! Absolutely the most dangerous gun as far as saftey goes, that has been manufactured in the last decade! Please do not use those guns.

    As I said, just my 2 cents worth!

    A handgun has to be reliable and safe, as a life may depend on it. Sell it to someone who doesn't care as much about their life as you do(or should).

    Just by chance I went to the factory on Tuesday and it's gone. The legal advisor for CPR had told me that after the last lawsuit against Bryco the plaintiff had proved that the Jennings family had created a false corporation to shield the Jennings/Bryco assets from judgments. They never held a board meeting and had no corporate officers. Since the corporate veil was pierced the corporation was not able to go BK and protect the company assets and reform.
    Personally, I've shot two Brycos and never had a problem with either.

    If they don't trust us with guns, how can we trust them with the government?

    Jsergovic....you have just won the "If The Truth Be Told" Award. [:D]

    Your prize is a Canadian Ross rifle, a Reising Submachine gun, and an "Already KaBoomed" Glock!

    I took my Bryco Jennings 380 ACP and placed it in a bucket of concrete, it makes a great boat anchor...[8D]

    Boat anchors are made of real steel/iron...I don't know WHAT the hell those Bryco's were made of. I think it might have been zinc or pot metal or something. There is also a big demand for those things here in Illinois...as drop guns for the various gangs from Chicago all the way out to Elgin. I don't wish to anger you but the only market I see for those things is drive by shootings and feel it is unethical to handle them, period!

    I must have had a magic Jennings 22

    I bought my Jennings 22 like 20 years ago.. I've put about 500 rds through it. Kept it clean. Never had a problem at all. I have two mags and the original box. I think I paid $40 for it.

    That's why I never understood the complaints -- I must have a magic one. (still ahve it!)
