Can`t help you directly as I never heard of them. However if you slide down to the General Non-automotive page there are some guys there who know guns backwards, 00BlueOvalRanger is one.
I`m sure they would be only too glad to help.

hi-points are garbage! they are cheap but your better off throwin the bullets because you'll atleast hit your target. ive got about 6 friends who own them, they all say they jam all the time. california quit selling them because they were low quality.

357 is the best revolver you can get because you can shoot .38's as well. .38 is a wayyyyyy cheaper round so you can have tons of fun on less money but still have the 357 power

check out gunbroker.com you can buy a gun and have it shipped to your local ffl gun dealer. only thing is, when its mailed in your gun shop usually wants 130-150 for transfer.
