Double Tap is right; if used in a self-defense situation I feel the hard double-action pull would not be noticed. I put the 17# Wolfe hammer spring in my P-64 and have no problems. To me changing the recoil spring is a waste of time. But, everyone is entitled to their own ideas.

Re: Help me identify an old shotgun (blackpowder)
Junius, I am glad you found out the info. You reminded me I have an old book on proofmarks in my gun books. The old guns are really neat. Being a buckskinner I see some old originals once in a while.

Re: My first p64
Thanks for the welcome, guys. I am really impressed with the P64. I was looking for a small secondary carry gun while my Airweight Bodyguard was getting a trigger job. The P64 will make an excellent CCW gun. Lightening the D/A pull will help with that first shoot if needed. I am used to cocking the ...
