Just talked to Andrew at J&G. He's emailing me a prepaid return UPS label, and will exchange my pistol ASAP.
He said he'd try to find one with a stiffer SA, but that they are notorious for light SA and horrendous (his word) DA. Since mine has a plum slide, I asked if he maybe could find another red slide for me, and he said he'd try, but those are rare.
Awesome customer service J&G, and Andrew!!!!!
Yippeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Glad to hear it all worked out for you.
Somebody got a hold of that gun before it shipped. Did one of them Polish trigger jobs on it

Yeah, not a doubt in my mind that a Polish military or police armorer did a job on that thing, did something that went beyond a simple spring job....
Re: P64 Springs?
Key with these springs is that you do have to file the ends flat, don't leave them in the round. This allows thenm to seat better.

Re: P64 Springs?
When I saw that the "original" spring was shorter than the 18 lb spring from Wolff, I looked at the bottom. It was flat. Had been filed or sanded down flat.PA-Joe wrote:Key with these springs is that you do have to file the ends flat, don't leave them in the round. This allows thenm to seat better.
Just got to wondering, since changing the hammer/main spring made absolutely no difference in the trigger pull, could the Polish guy have done something to the trigger spring? Replaced it with a weaker one?

Re: P64 Springs?
I've never heard of filing the ends of the mainspring flat. Heard of it for the recoil spring though. :S Anyway, hard to say what someone else did to it years ago. I'm glad to hear that J&G is going to take care of it for you. That will be real nice. Hope the replacement is in a better state.
