Re: Safety get stuck halfway

Hey, it is me again. It is a broken firing pin.
Broken firing pin broken at "shank".

I've seen some suggestions about some person in Poland. But are there any domestic sources?

Safety get stuck halfway

Dear P64 Community, I have shot about 250 rounds through my P64. But now the safety catch (lever) gets stuck half-way. I can fix it by "realigning" with a pen what looks like a firing pin "transfer bar" although it is unclear it actually has one. Whatever it is, it protrudes out ...

Re: Hammer spring poundage

PPU FMJ ammo from Cabella's. Seemed like decent stuff and wasn't exactly cheap at $17.

Re: Hammer spring poundage

Yes, I skipped over the 19# one. Better safe than sorry I guess. Once my state (WI) finally passes a Concealed Carry law I am considering this piece and better a harder DA and a BANG than a better DA with no bang. Well I shot 50 FMJ's without issue. They all went bang and MAN is is this baby accurat...

Re: Hammer spring poundage

I bought the Wolff 18, 19, & 20 Lb. hammer spring pack. Installed the 18 lb spring and out of the 50 PPU ammo, I had several misfires. Most fired on the second hammer strike but out of the 50 there were 3 that never fired. The primer shows an indent but it did not go bang. I will try the 20 lb o...

Replacing firing pin

Does anyone have detailed instructions how to replace the firing pin on a P64? I got one with my Wolf recoil spring and would like to install it.

Re: Trigger Pin not flush

Yes, I gave it a good soaking in mineral spirits. That did the trick. The slide not going in battery and needing some "thumb" help is what I had. I read somewhere that the empties being ejected so far also had to do with the recoil spring being too weak. Once I get my 20 lb spring installe...

Re: Trigger Pin not flush

Thanks! I had to use a small punch and a hammer as I could not push it in with my finger. Slide is back on and it seems to work. It is nice and flush on both sides. When I shot it, it shot fine. Very accurate when shooting from a rest. The empties ejected far away and the slide failed to go into bat...

Trigger Pin not flush

Bought my P64 last week and shot it yesterday. Worked great but when cleaning I noticed the trigger pin coming out slightly. Tried pushing it in to no avail. Is this normal? I've seen pictures where the pin is flush with the frame.
