P64 QUESTION

[pa63]

I am not the P64 expert, just a fan and I have a question. I know there are 2 versions, and for the purpose of the question, I will call them the round hammer and pointed hammer. The pointed hammer is the "improved" version. What improvements and is it a "better" gun, or just a later version?

I'm sorry if this is a dumb question or that I should know the answer but don't.

there is such thing as a dumb question on this board,




(The following information was provided to the Forum by a member in Poland, "Bartos"! Bartos has been a very valuable member in making previously unknow information about the P-64 available to us. He is also a member of the Polish Military in an Airborn Division. The information about the Variations are as follows:

First variations was made from 1964 to 1971 it has round hammer
Second variations was made from 1971 to 1973 it has modified hammer(but still round) and trigger bar( changes are only seen when do you compare two types of parts )
From 1972 this version has "A" stamp on the left side of pistol.
Third variations was made from 1973 to 1977 when the last one was produced . It has triangle hammer.

There was one more variation - In 1967 were made a few for 9mm short. In Poland are known two pistols in this caliber at the moment. I think that the rest were destroyed like many others weapon in Poland )
this is from this thread http://p64.proboards67.com/index.cgi?bo ... hread=1570


the other thing is the round hammer has a longer firing pin
