Safely selling a gun...

hi dwd, I had these same concerns myself,So I called the local BATF office. The agent I spoke with was an ok guy,was talking about all kind of stuff relating to firearms. Anyway,He told me what you just stated.You can put a rifle,or pistol on gunbroker,AuctionArms etc.,as long as it ships to an FFL....

recoil spring mod-point me in the direction

OK,thanks Norm,
I guess,First I'll take a look at the stock spring. Then try the 22# spring as it came from Wolff's,and if I have any problems,then I guess its time to get the grinder out.
thanks,
Don

recoil spring mod-point me in the direction

Hi Norm,
Thanks for the info. So,it IS necessary to grind both ends of the recoil spring flat?-I have to take a look at the original,and try to dupicate whatever shape that one has.

Maybe a dumb question but Why grind the ends at all?

My bloody trigger finger

The Wolf ammo I had several misfires with was in a black box of 50 rds.9mm Makarov,100 gr. steel case. It wasnt the "Military classic" ammo

I'm glad I only bought 2 boxes.Next time I go to the range I'll burn that up first. Didn't have any misfires with 3 other brands of ammo.

VERY hard DA trigger pull

Anyone know what the stock spring weights are?-Hammer(?),and recoil stock springs?

I'm real happy with Wolf Springs.-I picked one up for a Star Super in 9mm Largo,and can not believe the difference that one recoil spring made.-.....SMOOTH

Buy them here they are cherry

I could be wrong,but I think the hammer change,and some other minor trigger changes started in the year of our Lord,1973.

My bloody trigger finger

:-/ Hi All, I finally took my 1971 P-64 to the range after purchasing it on GunBroker in Jan. 2007. That little POS really tore my trigger finger up! Maybe I'm a big guy who shouldnt be using such a small gun. I'm 6'5" 290#(gained 50# after I quit smoking) anyway,like I was saying this little g...
