Re: 1987 Wanad with a green trigger

That is very interesting. I noticed the numbers on that one are SB05XXX. Mine is SB059XX (The J&G Photo above appears to be an SB05XXX as well) so they are very close with regard to production as well. Yours is in much nicer condition with regard to the finish. At least from the photos. You appe...

Re: Open carry Holster P-83

I did some searching online and found a Polish military drop leg holster on Ebay. Saw some photos of troops wearing it as well sporting the P-83. Well, it's camo but I ordered it anyway and I am very pleased. Not only does it fit my P-83 but the tag actually says P-83. It has options as I detached t...

Re: 1987 Wanad with a green trigger

Green trigger has come up before on this forum. Found this thread from a few years back as well as the photo it is referring to. I see you've got one with the green trigger also. Mine is like that and haven't seen any others until yours. I wonder if it was a 1987 thing? http://www.p64resource.com/fo...

Re: 1987 Wanad with a green trigger

Thanks for that corfirmation on your 87. All but one so far have been. It is a bit interesting. Curious as to why.

Re: 1987 Wanad with a green trigger

I did have a photo of the 87 I'm talking about. It is not the best photo but you can see the color is green on the one with the wood grips. The one on the bottom is an 89 and the whole of the trigger is black, not even the plum. I do have the plum in other locations on the gun like the slide release...

Re: 1987 Wanad with a green trigger

I'm hoping these examples show what I am talking about. I haven't even uploaded a photo of mine yet. It seems like it may be just a fading of the bluing as the upper portion of my trigger show a plum color. Typically that plum is the color I see when it comes to color changes in the bluing. It is ju...

Re: P-83 is fine with Hornady Crtical Defense 95 gr.

Thank you for that Pilot. I'm thinking clean mags and a polished feed ramp and it may be a non-issue. Has anyone run into issues with Hornady in their P-83? If so, any indication why or was it resolved? Thanks all.

Re: P-83 is fine with Hornady Crtical Defense 95 gr.

I realize this is an old thread but i was curious if you have done any mods to the pistols. Specifically the feed ramp of the 83. I know there have been issues with this round cycling in the P-83 (from what i understand the last few rounds). It may indicate more of a magazine problem. Has anyone els...

Re: P-83 grips

Yes, I may have made a slight error in my punctuation. If that bothers you then you should perhaps capitalize "Lord" then put a comma directly after it. Are you beginning a new sentence after "man"? If so, you need a period and then capitalize "You". You may want to cap...

Re: 1987 Wanad with a green trigger

I was going to post a photo but I'm new to this site and had some trouble there..."insufficient memory"?

The P-83 has become my favorite shooter and I'm considering it for CC.

P-83 grips

Well i broke down and ordered the wood p83 grips from grips4u and i have to say i am pleased. The grips are beautiful. (Checked everywhere else/wrote EVERYONE else for grips to no avail). My only issue is the rear of the slide extends about an 1/8 of an inch in a small portion. Other than that....wo...

1987 Wanad with a green trigger

Has anyone else noticed a green tone to their trigger on the 1987? My 87 has a greenish tone that i find quite cool and different. I ask only because i have only seen it in my 87 (not on my 89), saw it on an 87 on this site and J&Gs photo example online has it too and it is an 87. Serials on min...
