lol, when I go out shooting I put at least a couple hundred rounds out of mine each time. None of my guns have EVER jammed on me. I put several thousand rounds through an AK without ever cleaning it and it still never jammed on me.

Yeah, but that's an AK. You can't compare that to a ------- Hi-Point. The AK was carved from granite by the hands of god and handed down to Mikhail Kalashnikov like the ----------in' ten commandments to Moses.

lol, not according to some people. I've probably shot close to 1000 rounds out of my H&K without any troubles at all. I've cleaned it a few times though.

i have only shot about 4-5 hundred rounds through mine, but its only jammed once, and that was the clips fault. all the rounds in the clip put too much pressure on the spring and it forced all of them tip up and wouldnt feed. shitty clips are my only problem with it. and no i dont keep the clip loaded when its not being shot, 1 round only.

---- that. I hear people do that ---- to "save the spring". I'd much rather have to buy a new mag every once in a great long while and have enough ammo to save my *** than keep my spring like new while I run out of ammo when ---- hits the fan. What good is 1 round going to do you if you miss? Then you better hope the other guy only has 1 round or doesn't want to have a gun fight anymore.

That's just a myth, anyway. You're not bending the spring past its elastic limit when you leave the magazine fully loaded. It won't harm it.

Both of my handguns sit with 2 fully loaded clips at all times and they shoot perfectly fine as they sit. I don't care either way though.

SQ - it's always better to have a .380 in your pocket than a .45 sitting in your sock drawer because it was too big to conceal.
