I purchased a BHP a couple of decades ago ...
... but never devloped a liking for it as I had expected. While it's extremely accurate with FMJ ammo, it won't feed hollowpoint and after several attempts to correct the problem, I still get at least one jam per mag (often more). While it's a nice gun to take to the range, I just don't feel comfortable relying on it for self defense purposes -- which isn't the case with some other guns that I own from that time period such as my S&W659 ...
... which feeds everything that I give it. Did I just get stuck with a bad gun or am I missing what's so special about the BHP?
