QuestionCan you tell me where I can find an online breakdown guide and/or user manual for a Jimenez Arms Satin Chrome pistol Model J.A. 380? I just purchased this particular pistol new, but cannot find this information.
AnswerWell, I have good news and bad news.....
The GOOD is that you DON'T have teh JA-Nine. IT was deemed unsafe by the State of California and the company went into bankruptcy after a $24 million dollar judgement. go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bryco_Arms for details.
The BAD news is in order to get a copy of the procedure with possibly a diagram you would have to contact Shining Star Distributors at...

I would NOT use any ammunition in yor .380 except FMJ.
There have been too many stories of failure to feed and/or extract from using hollow points. Other than that you have a relatively decent house gun.
