The local funshop's got an AMT Backup in .380 for 199. I know to steer clear of their 1911s, but how is the backup? It was really slim! |
^that about sums it up my dad had one for over 10yrs; only fed FMJs (if it fed reliably)--absolutely NO JHPs would feed (included: Fed hydra shoks, UMC JHPs, Win JHPs) takedown is also a PITA, and this even goes for any kind of good cleaning; recoil is pretty stout too to the hand imo, you would be better w/ a KT P3AT or better yet, a SW J-frame |
Don't know about the .45. The .380 I had was a malfing POS.  I'd get a P3AT first. Oh, wait, I did.

I'm ashamed to admit that I've owned two of them in my younger/stupider days. The firing pin broke on the first one. I sold the second one shortly after I quit drinking and realized what a piece of shit it was. They were much too heavy for their size IMO. DON'T DO IT! IT'S A TRICK! |
