I have never shot one and likely never will based on things I've heard, seen and their internet reputation. Just read through various online forums and you'll see. They are pretty famous lol. Contrary to what many will tell you it is possible to get a decent gun on the cheap. If you are on that tight a budget(and believe me I COMPLETELY understand) take a look at the HiPoints. They are ugly. They are inexpensive. People will laugh at you. Just like the Jiminez with a few exceptions...they work, they will last, they are at the very least combat accurate, and they have a lifetime no questions asked warranty whether you bought it new or are the 37th owner. Hard to go wrong for less than two bills!
