Kase and I both have had several. The ultra snubbies were prone to jam with a limp wrist type hold or even just a one handed hold.

The longer series of Detonics functioned fine. The shorty was used in the Miami Vice TV show as an ankle holster gun as a back up to Crockett's Bren Ten. Whatever 1911 was used on that show, Kase had to have one, so we went thru pretty much every one they made.
