After prepping my dad's P 380 we went to the range today. It shoots very accurately , recoil is very mild, but still a little more than I would have thought . Handles very well, all controls function perfectly. But .....
We had numerous failures to feed ( 8- 9 ) estimated. We ran 200 rounds of Winchester White box through it . It did not seem to matter which mag. we used, and was not consistent as to which round out of the magazine that failed to feed. It also failed to feed speer gold dots after the 200 round break in was over. It was very dirty at the end though, so we will give it a good cleaning and lube and see what happens next trip.
I still have high hopes for it, but I think my dad was a little disappointed.
After bragging about my PM 40 so much, I hope I do not have to eat my words.
