Well, lets put it this way...last year, a pawn shop next to where I worked was $20 short of their sales goal for the month, and it was the 31st. They offered me a Jiminez .25 pistol for $20...and I passed on it. Hit the mag release, and you still had to tug the mag out of the frame...

Straight from the website: (here's a link: http://www.shiningstardist.com/JA%20nine.htm)

Features: The flagship feature of the Jimenez Arms J.A. Nine is its easy to use massive screw adjustable rear sight which is adjustable for windage and elevation. Other, higher priced, pistols do not offer this kind of flexibility. The high visibility front sight is another great feature which adds to a highly effective sight pattern. These features coupled with a last round slide hold open makes this pistol uncommonly accurate and a delight at the range.

I once knew this horribly over weight and ugly girl. She owned a Jimenez.

Speaking of hipont I was watching a vid on youtube and the guy could rack the slide and chamber a round just by punching in a downward motion really fast. To me that screams high quality. Well I guess you can look "cool" while chambering a round. LOLOLOL!

Ok sorry for pooping on your thread now back to why Jimenez arms suck.

I was talking to one of the dealers at a gun show and since I have bought a couple firearms from him, he told me that he does whatever he can to talk people out of buying the Jimenez pistols. The only reason he carries them is that he was losing sales and had people asking for them.

The name just screamed "P.O.S. gun" to me - then when I saw the price I felt justified.

I think these "guns" are probably best left to the gang-bangers & REAL guns left to those, like us, who can truly appreciate a decent firearm.
