Re: What did you carry today?

I have considered and in fact own two 7.65x25...a CZ52 and a Zastava M57. I keep the CZ52 in my truck (ferrel hogs and other critters). The M57 stays in the house, but would be much more appropriate for CC than the CZ52. Great firearms, superior round when it comes to penetration. By the way, the m...

Re: Slide Stuck

Will have to do measurements tomorrow after work, but it looks to be about a mm or two. From what I'm finding on the forums that seems pretty consistent with my guessing.

Re: Slide Stuck

If that's the case couldn't I just file them to be correct (and then deburr them obviously, no one like slashed thumbs)

Re: Slide Stuck

Every round of the mag. My best guess is that since they look newer they're post 72 mags and as my p64 was made in 67, that could be an issue if I've read correctly, in which case the seller kinda screwed me on that. I want to say it was as if the feed lips were like 2mm too long almost.

Re: What did you carry today?

...but now it's all about reliability, shot placement and penetration...not about caliber nor round capacity. I prefer all steel weapons. I prefer simplicity over hype. Thus, American revolvers and Soviet steel jump to the top of my list. But, sometimes an itty-bitty polymer pistols have their plac...

Re: Slide Stuck

Well, I was gonna go by the range today anyway so I figured I'd have a gunsmith take a look at it as I couldn't get it freed. He got it done in about five minutes, either I missed some trick or I was being way too gentle with it. In any case, works perfectly now and I couldn't be happier. But go fig...

Re: Slide Stuck

It wasn't, it was functioning fine. Did a field strip and when I went to put the slide back on I think I wasn't mindful in any play of the slide stop as everything I had seen previously didn't seem to have that problem. In retrospect I should have looked as similar issues can happen with my Tokarev ...

Re: Slide Stuck

I actually had looked at that thread before, the trouble is that it is 100% seized and pulling on it won't loosen anything. Was wondering if sticking a dowel down the barrel to butt up against the bolt and then hammer against that would damage the firing mechanism or not, or if that had worked for a...

Slide Stuck

So I got my P-64 today, and as is customary for me anytime I get a new firearm I have to do a takedown/reassembly. Unfortunately upon reassembly I seem to have jammed the slide, originally it was jammed completely open, but now it is jammed about 1/4" out of battery. Given the state of the hand...
