The local range owner said theirs feeds very reliably (although, as with any auto, you may have to choose certain types of bullets to make sure -- some have problems with hollow-points.) In fact, he said it was much better than the .380 government model. Is Colt still on strike? The Mustang is a very popular model as a police backup, and maybe he can't get any. (And therefore those grapes were sour anyway...) The Walther PPK is universally praised as a well-made, accurate, reliable gun. It seems to hold up to abuse rather well. But it ain't cheap. (about $400)
