I just got a Pico the other day, looking to upgrade my pocket gun from a keltec p32.   So far, approx 100-150 rounds, I have yet to get through a magazine.  Gun seems to have extraction issues, if it is a chamber or extractior issue I am not sure, however the jams resulting are such that a quick clear can not usually remedy.  Ideas?

What ammo?

My BG380 is fairly picky about ammo, but when once I found some it liked (Aguila, Hornady, Winchester) it ran like a sewing machine.

It chokes almost every other round on anything made by TULA.


I have been eyeballing the Pico as is seems even smaller than my BG380.

This is good advice. The smaller you get, the more picky the gun has to be with ammo.

I had a rough start with my Pico but it has been 100% since I cleaned it. Took about 2 boxes to break in.

I have shot Sig 100gr, PPU 94gr, 90gr PMC, & Gecco 95gr in addition to half a box of HPR 90gr XTPs.

Also, if you check the Beretta forums, lots of people have been breaking firing pins when dry firing excessively so get some snap caps if that's your thing.

I had to blow through 400 rounds to break it in. Now it is 100 percent reliable. Never malfunctions at all.
