Re: Monarch Ammo

I would like to add that Academy has free shipping on orders of $25 or more. Not sure anyone can beat this price. I believe the Mfg is Barnaul (Made in Russia)

Re: P83 Magazine Spring

Going to try that as well Curly. For the first time out, I was not trying to troubleshoot on range. It only failed to lock back a couple times and did not understand the mechanics until I cleaned afterwords. At that time, came to understanding that the catch on mag follower pushes up on slide lock. ...

P83 Magazine Spring

Anyone know where you might be able to buy replacement P83 magazine springs? Acquired a new P83 a few weeks ago and had a few failures to lock back with last round and doing some trouble shooting, to me it looks like the Mag spring is weak and therefore not applying enough force against the slide ca...

Re: General Cleaning of P64

I would not advise soaking in pain thinner or any solution for 24 hours. Really soaking at all. If you are wanting to clean and decrease, there are specific products that can do this or you could use a non-chlorinated brake fluid. I personally cannot see the need to do so unless you are trying refin...

Re: Missing Rear sights on Bulgarian Makarov

I think it was one of those things that if you were looking right at it you would not notice it. Not upset and they are working with me. I am getting some sights I purchased from another forum member Monday to see if this is a quick fix. If not Classic has indicated they will make it right still. Ra...

Re: J&G sales and Classic firearms feedback

Received P64 end of July that as far as I can tell is new. Non wear on exterior or slide rails. Hand grips showed a little wear but I suspect they might alway look a little rough

Looking for advice. Picked up a Bulgarian Makarov from my FFL today and both the FFL and I failed to notice it was missing the rear sights. Not going to mention who I purchased it from other then they are an on-line retailer since they have not had a chance to respond to an email I sent asking what ...
