Did a bunch of reorganizing the safe today. Stashed back in the corner under some other things where it could remain forgotten for eternity which is probably a good thing. But in this day and age it’s probably worth more than I paid. Not even sure how many states they are still legal in. Any way,

If you put it on Armslist for $900 you will not be the highest one listed.

These usually bring $150+/-50 on used American market, however, now sky maybe the limit.

I won’t sell it as somebody could get killed with that thing and it won’t be the one in front of it. Thought about turning it in to the cops to be destroyed or one of them gun buybacks but that would be against my principles on both counts.
So it’s now in an ammo can of stuff I didn’t even remember having with the hope that it is now buried for the rest of my days. 😄

When my brother passed away, he had a Davis .380 (just an upscaled Jennings or Raven). He had never shot it, but it had been back to the factory twice because it wouldn't fire at all. I knew all this, and have tried to give it away to a gunsmith, for use as a parts gun.


. He refused it.

You know you've got a prize when you can't even give it away.

I did have a Jennings J-22 for awhile. After about 20 rounds, it quit working as well. It was crap, like all the products from that outfit. I WAS able to swap it off for a Rogers World Shoot holster for my Colt Gov't Model. I got a lot of use from that holster, a heckuva lot more use than that little pistol, anyway.

Maybe $150 if lucky. Not very reliable. These were never well thought of. There are a few people who collect them, but mostly because a relative worked in the factory and similar reasons.

I have a J-22 that was in some stuff my late father-in-law gave me before he died years ago. I need a magazine for it if anyone has an extra one for sale.
