The "problem" with feeding of the 500 Jeff rounds from Magazine to Chamber
is because SOME gunsmiths don't know how to build them correctly and don't test them
before handing them over.

The ORIGINAL 500 schuler/Jeff Guns fed fine and worked well - I have a copy of
one and it is fine. I also have an original 505 Gibbs and I have jamed / fumbled that
sometimes and it is not the guns fault !!!

Single Stack magazine in a 500 Jeff helps solve part of the problem.

Re 500 Jeff / 5050 Gibbs - an animal wouldn't be able to tell the difference.
(not that I've ever had a Buffalo turn round and tell me anyway !!!
