Today we are taking a look at my new Jericho 941 R kit. This gun has a lot of pretty cool history and is featured in one of my favorite animated series of all time, so I was naturally very drawn to it and wanted to acquire my own Jericho 941 at some point. I had noticed that over the last couple of years, they were only going up in price and figured I should jump on one at the next chance I had. I stumbled upon this Jericho 941 R kit containing both 9mm and 41AE barrels as well as all the original cleaning and carrying supplies that KBI shipped with the kit. In addition to this, I received several magazines for each caliber. This video is designed more as a show and a look at my new Jericho 941 R kit as opposed to an in depth look at the gun and its history.
I am really picky when it comes to the quality of most things I buy and the Jericho 941 was no exception, especially since it was quite expensive for a handgun. That being said, I don’t think that the quality of the Jericho that I received is terrible or even bad really. The exterior finish on the 941 R I got is quite good with the exception of some of the glossier blued parts like the hammer and slide release as well as the frame where the slide release locks in. I feel that the quality is good, but it isn’t as described by the retailer from which I purchased the gun. I spend a lot of time in the video complaining about this fact you will find, but I can’t help but be a bit salty. After taking a look at my new Jericho 941 R kit I found that the feed ramp was caked in dried powder and that the slide had heavy wear markings under the bolt and along the slide. This was frustrating since the seller described the firearm as “Once Fired, Excellent Condition.” I had multiple different people look at it, including a smith who agreed that it probably had closer to 200-300+ rounds through it.
I have contacted the seller and am asking him what he has to say regarding the quality of the Jericho 941 I received versus the quality that he claimed it was in and he has so far been VERY rude and unhelpful and is insisting that I am wrong. I don’t plan to throw him under the bus by releasing the name of the retailer yet, on the off chance that he makes this right in some way but overall am expecting him to continue being stubborn about that matter and will choose my course of action from there when the time comes. The Jericho 941 R kit that I have functions fine so far and I still serviceable, but I HIGHLY dislike being misled or lied to and especially dislike giving my money to a company that acts in such a way. All I really want is for the guy to admit that either someone owned the gun before him and he doesn’t know if they fired it more or that he did in fact fire more than a couple dozen shots, and apologize for misleading me to any degree. I think that it is a detriment to an already threatened community of peaceful gun owners for there to be someone lying and disserving within our ranks.
Let me know your thoughts on the kit as well as your thoughts on the condition compared to the description I was given. Part of me wants to believe that I am being over expectant of the condition this Jericho 941 R should have been in, but everyone I have spoken to seems to agree that it is in much worse condition than “maybe 20 rounds or so.”
Thanks for watching.
