Beretta CX4 Carbine "Bullpup"

I know I will experience a wrath of angry e-mails but this Beretta post has no place in a P-64 forum, but if it is OK, let me tell you about the M3 Grease Gun I fired yesterday......or CZ 75 machine pistol I tried a couple of years ago in Tbilisi..........or.......
you get my drift.

OT: "made" at work today

Under the law (as Norm indicated) the company policy governs regulations pertaning to having a firearm in a workplace. You should simply appeal to the manager to let you stay and, at the same time, promise you will not bring your firearm ever to work. I have an uneasy feeling that you were adamant a...

Gift box for P-64

Witaj:
Milo poznawac Polakow na tym forum, - czy jestes porucznikiem polskiej armii?

I apologize to American readers for these few words in Polish but I wanted to greet Bartos in his native language.
Thanks

Been thinking about buying a P-64

I am going to throw in one more choice - almost everyone forgets: FEG SMC 918 . It is exactly the size of P64, It has a far better double action trigger pull It has the magazine release button on the left side behind the trigger (like the Walther PPK) therefore faster to reload It has aluminum frame...

Omega Custom Grips for P-64

To Garry:
P 83 and P 64 are two completely different guns. There is nothing even remotely similar - except for the caliber.

P 64 as C&R

First, to answer carguy - I tried to get an import license for P 64 in 1994 - the answer was no - it didn't meet the ATF regs. I was in shock when the same gun got the ATF approval eight years later. These guns were first imported to the USA long after the Massachusetts and California laws took effe...

P 64 as C&R

I don't know the law of the State of Massachusetts but in California firearms on C&R list are exempt from the safety regulations requring that only guns certified by the state can be sold in California or brought into California. Having P 64 on C&R list would allow Californians to buy this p...

P 64 as C&R

In order to have P64 certified as C & R one needs to have a curator of any museum so certify. ATF regulations provide that a firearm can be certified as C&R if: 2.) Firearms which are certified by the curator of a municipal, State, or Federal museum which exhibits firearms to be curios or re...

some P-64 history

Witam Zbysiu - Hello: In fact I know people (actually one person) who managed to get one of the new VIS pistols and also a holster (copy of 1935 design) made to go with this special model. That, in fact is true that the limited series was made. However, Radom factory web page advertizes this pistol ...

some P-64 history

Archer in Polish means Lucznik - and that is still the name of the factory in Radom to this day. In addition to firearms, after the war - they made sewing machines, thus the name Lucznik was more known in Poland as makers of sewing machines than firearms. Radom Lucznik (Archer) is trying now to get ...

CZ -82 I THINK ARE C&R NOW

That is all true, but these that are less than 50 years old must fall in either category 2 or 3, and unless you found one particularly special gun that would either have museum quality or was special in some other way - no CZ or P 64 will qualify, making this whole discussion moot until the earliest...

CZ -82 I THINK ARE C&R NOW

Neither CZ 82 nor P64 are on the ATF C&R list and therefore they are NOT C&R inspite of what you may be hearing. There maybe an occasional gun placed on C&R list because of its museum or memento value, but it must be something special (like an engraved model given as a valued gift to som...

What would you like to see? Pics Added

Unfortunately, the production of these pistols in Poland ceased in 1983 with the new P 83 model. All the P 64s on the market are from pre-1983 era and there will be no new ones. It might not be difficult to fiddle around with the magazine floor plate and a finger rest but changing the caliber (as so...

Any markings inside your P64 Holsters?

Of course, I made a mistake- so before anyone else notices it - Poland regained her independence (from the Soviet influence) in 1989 and not 1998 - sorry.
