I have a C-100 (black) I bought for my wife in November of 13' that has 750 rounds through it. No visible wear, no problems to date, and has actually loaded empty cases when trying to teach my wife to clear a jam. This is 115grain, 124 grain ball, 147 grain JHP and 147 grain ball
T120 Desert Tan, 250 rounds, most are 115 grain ball, 147 grain ball and 147 grain JHP only about 25 of each. functions without problems.
