Really Embarrassing to Confess This One, But Anyway..............
JTH:
Stingers...in a Jiminez?
Wear eye pro! And gloves! And a bomb suit!
(I'm only half joking, really. I know you are smart enough to always wear eye pro, but.....I'd actually kinda serious about the gloves thing. Rapid spontaneous energetic dis-assembly is a known issue with a Jiminez, and with Stingers....hm.)
As for being embarrassed at buying a Jiminez.....
...I actually own a Davis two-shot .22 LR derringer. With pearl grips. Memento that never lets me forget that even normal people buy stupid things sometimes. (You know, the derringer where if you load it and lock it shut without bringing the hammer to half-cock, it might go off because the firing pin sticks out a little unless it is at least at half-cock? Yeah, one of those.)
depserv:
Do the bursts make it definable as a machinegun? Are you in violation of the NFA for being in possession of it? And now everyone knows.
SemperFiGuy:
[quote]Are you in violation of the NFA for being in possession of it? [/quote]
Just thinkin' about guns is probably a violation of the NFA, BAFTE, Sullivan Act, Mann Act..........whatever.
Even involuntary dreamin'...........
And jthhapkido's advice on damage control is right on "target". RSED, indeed!! :laugh:
I've already had one blow up and wasn't even tryin'.
We'll see how it goes.

This Dinky-Little-Piece-of-Junk-Jiminez JA-22-Is Fantastic!!!
It has given me some entirely new insights into the Mysterious Inner World of Wimmen. And how They think. Or whatever.
Let's Go Ahead and Set it Up:
We all know of really bodacious wimmen--total feminiine knockouts--who somehow take up with some Poor Sorry Specimen of Mankind who is truly a Loser. Big time Loser. Maybe we even get a bit envious or sumthin'. Like jealous: Fer cryin' out loud, why did she pick Him?? Why not Meeeeeeeeeeeee????
Her idea is that--sorry specimen he is--her love will save him!!! She can fix him!!! Then turn him over to one of her lesser BFFs or maybe a rival.
We all know that it never works out and there's a Whole Great Big World of Hurt to be gained. And all her friends will say I told you so and Her Dad will really be steamed.
Truth is, Girls............. Some of us on the Other Gender Side are so sorry that no amount of your love will save us. Just ain't gonna happen. Too bad, your heartbreak and all. Oh, well.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Let's now bring in the Jiminez [It's the Poor Sorry Specimen of Handguns]
Yes. I knew it even before I bought it. Researched up, down, and thoroughly on the Web. Knew that it wuz called the "Jammomatic" and the "Jam-in-nez". Absolutely knew all that.
Still bought it.
And have now put about 3000 rounds of .22LR Everything through it: Maybe 10-12 different kinds of stuff, 1080fps up to CCI Stingers at 1640fps. And Velocitors. And MiniMags. And Remington Thunderbolts and Golden Bullets. And Federal bulk, both kinds.
FTEs, Stovepipes, FTFs, Failures to go into Battery, Failures to ___________________________. Many interesting and innovative kinds of stoppages.
But some successes, too. Some fluffing. Some buffing. Some grinding. Bit of oil here, grease there. Some slide spring and striker pin spring stretching.
Even some cleaning.
A few times I've been able to fire up to four full six (6) round magazines rapid fire, just gangbusters. No malfunctions a-tall.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Lady imagines her Sorry Man giving up the booze and drugs, maybe taking some classes at the Community College. Having something like a job. Getting along with her mother (forget the Father, forever). Maybe buying a suit. Or at least a sportcoat. And trading in his rusty old Honda Civic.
I imagine loading up that Jiminez JA-22 with CCI Stingers, 6+1, slipping it in my pocket, easing out the door into the darkening night, confident that I am well prepared for any sort of contingency, knowing full well that I have finally, finally brought it up to the peak of reliable performance, Kimber Commander equivalent.
I really don't understand wimmen, but now I understand them.....................better.
FWIW,
