Re: New p-64 owner question

Thanks for the advice. I followed that approach when I got my Mosin-Nagant as it was packed with cosmoline. My P64 was bone dry. In shooting it in, it feels like a new gun. I'll lube it like you suggested (I still have that lube) and I guess I'll just have to run a few hundred rounds through it. Tha...

Re: New p-64 owner question

I just took my pistol to the range yesterday. I ran four or five mags through it without a single FTF or FTE. At 7 meters, everything was in the center if mass of the target at a pretty crisp rate of fire. The only problem I have is after field stripping, sometimes the safety gets stuck. I found out...

Re: New p-64 owner question

That's a valid question. I've never had to carry multiple guns. As heavy as the double action is, I just wonder if it's possible to tune it to the point where it's reasonable and doesn't make you miss with the first round without jeopardizing the safety of the already light single action pull.

Re: New p-64 owner question

This is somewhat unrelated, but I love your tagline about being able to get the job done with six rounds. I'm somewhat of a C&R evangelist because I think it is the way to go for anyone that wants quality firearms at a reasonable price and wants to avoid the oppressive licensing laws such as we ...

Re: New p-64 owner question

I just got my P-64. It's a 1972 that I bought from the good folks at Classic Firearms, my second purchase there. It is an exceptionally good piece. They advertised it as G to VG when in reality it was VG to EXC. I have a few very rookie-like questions. I see all of the discussion over lightening up ...
