I use a Jericho in competition and the decocker is a good thing the way I see it. I have seen guys accidentally discharge while decocking a DA with a trigger pull, which of course is an instant DQ. It is true that the safety bites a bit while racking the slide, but I have yet to actually accidentally activate the safety while racking.

Truth be told, I have a Norinco NZ85B in 9 mm. I put the rubber CZ grips on it; it fits me so well, and is so accurate, that I was actually hoping to find an NP40 to match it. Everyone has been sold out of those for some time, and I advertised for one, and only got a couple responses, with fairly high prices. I shopped around for a "CZ" pattern .40 and any of the used CZs I found were still very expensive, or badly beat up. Tenda had the full sized .40 IWI Jericho on for $549.00 with three mags, holster and double mag pouch, shipped. How could I say no!
It shoots low, I need to get a taller back sight, but the feel and the function is amazing! It is stable and the extra weight is an asset with the .40 cal. I still like my NZ85 better although, if a 9mm full-sized steel Jericho were offered at a cheap enough price, I would buy it.
BTW, mine is not a Baby Desert Eagle or an Uzi Eagle; it is an IWI Jericho 941, with the slide de-cocker. You can't believe everything that is written in Wiki.
9mm because there is no benefit to shooting .40 in production division and 9mm is cheaper.
Ya. Shot from a level barrel, you can't be getting much bullet drop from a projectile in orbit.
I got an excellent deal on the IWI Jericho 941 in 40 S&W. The ad mentioned a range kit which consists of a Fobus paddle holster and mag carrier. It's a well-made, solid shooting iron. I put a set of LOK Grips Bogies on it and grabbed a couple of extra magazines. Good to go.
How do you shoot with yours; I am still shooting tight, low groups with mine, but from a bench rest it is right on. The problem is me LOL. Using 200 gr. campro bullets over a middle of the road powder load. I may try some campro 155 gr. next to see if it changes point of impact. In the mean time, I am going to practice more with the ones I have presently loaded.
How do you like the grips? Have they helped your shot placement?
Can anybody explain to me why there is a piece of barrel that sticks out of this compact Jericho 941? There are several websites offering those compact pistols, while there are none that offer a full length frame (at least I couldn't find).
If it's for attaching accessories, then why it's not threaded? Am I supposed to send a brand-new pistol to a gunsmith just to do that? I don't get the logic.
I couldn’t own one. Always reminds me of dog lipstick.
