Been interested in this one for some time. Please do post the range report!

Where did you get it and how much did you pay?

Last I saw one was at Don's Guns years ago marked up way too high. The 9's were going for like $350 on gunbroker, almost got one but bought a 1911 instead. I'm still interested in getting one, those Charles Daily versions with the rail look real cool, I never see any at PSS.

I paid 450 after tax, but it is a .45 with the rail. All steel frame and is stamped jericho 941. I beleive the ones stamped jericho 941 wer the original jerichos imported, after, they started comin out with stampings that say baby eagle or uzi eagle i beleive. If soemone knows more about this please elaborate. Thanks.


Also i know this has been asked before but instead of starting a new thread, who knows a quality place for refinishing???? thanks..

Gunbroker has some selling them for $349. They are steel framed - not polymer. I'm not sure if they are .45 or 9mm. They ARE cool guns though!

First - Congrats!

On the grips does it say IWI or IMI? Is yours a FS (mid size / semi compact) or full size? It's a very confusing system of designations. If it's the full size you have a real gem. I have one of the FS models, .45 acp, rail, all steel frame. It has one of the best triggers out of the box of any gun I have ever owned. My Jericho is one of those guns I would never sell / trade.

Edit: Here are a couple of good places for hard chrome:

Here is a fairly recent thread on INGO talking about hard chrome and NP3 finish's some good reading.

Thank you topdog, i beleive it says IWI, although i will have to check and make sure when i get home. Im pretty sure its a full size. its a fairly large gun in terms of full size, compact etc. I havent gotten it to the range yet, Thursday probably, but dry firing it, dont worry i used snap caps, it does have a very smooth trigger pull especially when in SA. Thanks for the info on the plating, i really appreciate it.

You are welcome you have a awesome handgun.

If you like a Jericho, try a Bul Cherokee! Most ergonomic feeling gun you can hold. It is a larger 9MM, but a great shooter.

Two completly different guns. The Jericho all steel, heavy and smooth and the Bul Cherokee polymer frame. But can you compare the triggers of both guns? Have you shot both guns? Just curious as to how it handles.
