The Unofficial P64 Resource Forum

I recently changed out the springs in my P64. Recoil spring is now 20 lb and trigger is 18. It is, of course, much easier to fire. However, every once in awhile the slide goes forward after the last round is fired rather than staying open. Probably about once in 20 or so rounds. Springs the problem? :'(

Did this happen before you changed the springs?

that has has to do with the slide stop

could also be the slide stop on the mag maybe worn

Thanks for the quick info. To answer: it did not occur before I changed springs and I will check the slide stop spring. Thanks again.
