P64's at Classic Firearms
P64's at Classic Firearms
Just a note, Classic Firearms has P-64's with 2 mags AND an IWB holster for $219.00. They claim good to vefy good condition but no hand select as they claim little variation in condition from pistol to pistol.
Close enough for Government work will get you dead, ask any Vet.
Re: P64's at Classic Firearms
I got mine in today, didnt look at it much since I didnt want people at my work seeing me with a gun in the parking lot.
But, the bluing looked good and it had typical holster wear around the muzzle. I would say that I certainly got what I paid for(~$210 pistol).
The picture on the website represents a "VG" hand select gun, you probably wont receive something that good, but it will be fairly close in condition with noticeable wear on the muzzle.
The condition I think is "good". If it had less wear around the muzzle id call it VG but the rest of the gun is in VG condition.
I had to pay tax (NC resident) so I paid more than most and I am satisfied. I did get it next day(Sent via USPS priority mail) since I only live 3 hours from the warehouse.
I was in Charlotte when I placed the order and wanted to go pick it up ASAP but they said they couldnt do that. Just an FYI for anyone.
It cost me almost $250 with the tax and shipping, and I already know that is a bit on the high side for the condition but its always good to support a local business in your community(I was born in Monroe and live there). The website is much better than most "gun store" websites and stomps that "Widners" store over the head in both web design and processing speed.
I will post pics later today after work.

Re: P64's at Classic Firearms
Guys, I just realized my slide is plumb colored, I guess thats ok?
Re: P64's at Classic Firearms
Yeah. Plumb coloring has nothing to do with reliability or functionality that I know of. Just how your slide handled the blueing process. Should be just fine. How was the 2nd mag and holster? And Welcome to the Brotherhood. Give us a range report after you shoot it. And yours looks to be in pretty good shape. I paid a little more for mine and I think mine is in about the same shape.

Re: P64's at Classic Firearms
Thanks, 2nd mag works fine its just the plastic part is chipped. It fits perfectly in the holster though. I am taking my Concealed Carry License course on the 31st of Jan so I figured the deal was good for me at $219.Ketchman wrote:Yeah.

Re: P64's at Classic Firearms
Good to hear. They said in the the advert that the plastic bottoms may have some chipping but should be functional. What kind of holster is it? And when will you shoot it, we are dying for a range report.

Re: P64's at Classic Firearms
Came with a "UTG" concealed carry holster, perfect size and fit. Clips onto your belt. I got a year pass for 2015 to the NC forest service ranges in the Nantahala Forest so probably the first day of January. Believe me, I am also dying to shoot it and my new Romanian TTC.Ketchman wrote:Good to hear. They said in the the advert that the plastic bottoms may have some chipping but should be functional.

C&R licenses are awesome!
I will report back after I shoot it.
Re: P64's at Classic Firearms
Cool. Look forward to the report.

Re: P64's at Classic Firearms
Congrats....Sweet deal with 2 mags and holster, prices are finally coming down. I see were J&G has them for $199 in good condition but with only one mag and $229 in VG condition. Classic Arms for me has always been really good to deal with. Let us know how it functions when you get it cleaned up and put rds down range.
Re: P64's at Classic Firearms
Went to the range and it is very accurate. Seemed that the blazer ammo I had was "hotter" than the winclean brass ammo.
Gave a nice sharp kick that left some slight bruising on the webbing of my hand. But nothing unbearable.
Overall, very pleased with it. Should make a great carry piece. Dont think I want any ammo much hotter than I had though! haha
Also shot my new Romanian Tokarev TTC, very easy to shoot and also accurate. Surprisingly it had less recoil.
