Dang whippersnappers!

I took my 13-year-old son to the range last night. I was shooting my Mak and he was shooting his .22. I'd brought my new P-64 along to let him try it out. His first group at 7 yds was one long ragged hole about 1-1/2" tall by about 3/4" wide. Second target it spread out a bit - 3" gro...

New P-64 FTF's (but accurate)

I cleaned the gun & magazines after my last trip. I went to the range today and forcefed several magazines through the gun, then fired a box. It worked much better this time, though I still had a few failures to feed. It launched brass into orbit. I have the recoil spring and main spring on orde...

New P-64 FTF's (but accurate)

Thanks for all the good information.

I've got the pictorial disassembly file on the jump drive, and I hope to have time this weekend for a detail strip & clean. I'll report back.

Anybody know how to set threads to email you when there's been a reply?

New P-64 FTF's (but accurate)

Trent - I have plans for the heavier recoil spring, I just haven't gotten it yet. It kind of beat up my hand. bzinggg - I took the mags apart and cleaned them when I got home. Lots of reddish stuff came out that I would take for rust, but I'm not sure how it got there. I did a field strip clean befo...

New P-64 FTF's (but accurate)

So, I picked up my P-64 on Aug 29 or 30 and went shooting this weekend. I had some problems that I hope will be related to break-in. I'm not sure this pistol has been fired much. I don't know all the correct terms for these problems, so I'd appreciate a vocabulary lesson as well as suggestions for t...

New M44 - Updated pics

Yep, been lurking at 7.62x54r.net most of the evening. Is it possible that I have a chrome lined barrel. Sure looks like it to me but I have never heard of that before. There is even chrome on the end of the barrel just like on my AK. Looks new. Tried to take a picture but it came out pretty bad. G...
