The Unofficial P64 Resource Forum

i use a nemesis holster for the PPK to house my P-64 for pocket carry and it fits perfectly.

okay, the new mag's have metal followers........

beasleydano, i really am not good enough at this to even tell whether they are original or not..... or if they are from asian market...... they look pretty close to the original mag's .... but if there are some suttle differences my eyes can not see it..... i got the mags from the mag's from Makarov...

michaelap,
actually my thumb is fine, and i actually only have some slight stiffness in my right hand, like i had done some manual work... Ha.... my finger tips are still a little sore from loading that 125 rounds.....

so today i go to the range to break in a couple of new mag's..... and make sure my P64 fires after all the fussing i did with it in putting in new 20# recoil spring, new firing pin spring, 18# hammer spring and messing with the safety..... so it went bang on first round, and the mag full of 95 gr FM...

hello lee2, this is a good link to start with: http://p64.proboards67.com/index.cgi?board=book&action=display&thread=1188734749 and about everything on the P64 is in the forum, just need to find it..... which is a lot of fun, learning about this little wonder...... only had mine a couple of ...

however, don't throw them away just yet...... in Evan Marshall and Edwin Sanow's book "Stopping Power" they accumulated actual shooting data on most of the calibers and for the 32 they had documented 387 shootings with 218 'one shot stops'.... that is a 56% effectiveness..... and the penet...

this is better and better....... so, i could not find any graphite in my stash of stuff, but did find a tube of 'teflon' lube that had a few drops left..... and behold.... a safety that i can move easily with my 69 year old thumb....... that may have just done it...... but off to find some crocus cl...

so, after thinking about the less than smooth safety, i took it apart again, getting good at this, and left the safety detent and spring out, put it back together and of course it was as smooth as glass...... so, i did a little polishing on the safety detent as it looked like it might have had a lit...

69 soon to be 70, retired from 23 years in Air Force and spent 7 years of that in Germany, 4 in France and 2 in Iran and of that time i spent 12 of those as Special Agent in OSI... then on to 19 years in Aerospace Industry as a Security Manager, retired from there at 60, and live in "Surprise&q...

thanks norm......... so, i in my old age, managed to easily remove the safety, firing pin and safety detent and spring.... no problem with the plastic bag.... they do come out pretty quickly..... i then spritzed it up with my 'break free' including the firing pin channel and the safety channel... th...

well, i spritzed it well with 'Break Free' then oiled it up with synthetic gun oil and it seemed to free it up some..... but no i had not dis-assembled it.... but i sure will now....... on my plate for today.......

Whoops......... received the parts and looks like there has been a change. Received part as listed on the forum and what i received does not look like the previous post. my part is flat on the end that was sort of pointed before. or, of course they could have sent the wrong part, which is possible i...

now that is what i call rapid responce........ many thanks Norm..........

will order up today.........

good day all...... i have yet to receive my springs for taking care of the DA issue, but have another question i have not seen on the forum, yet... the safety on my P64 is really dificult to move from fire to safe and back...... now granted, my 69 year old fingers are not what they used to be. howev...
