Range Report

I took my P-64 out today and ran over 60 rounds through it. My target was a 9 inch (23 cm) paper plate at 7 meters. I figure 7 meters is about maximum self defense range -- most self defense actions are even closer. I like to practice using two hands first, firing rapid fire and double taps, then on...

Replacement Recoil Spring

I noticed when I fire my P-64, that it throws the brass (steel? I've been using Wolf brand ammo...) eight to ten feet and sometimes farther. So, I ordered a replacement Recoil Spring from a seller on Ebay ( http://tinyurl.com/cm3gu ). When the replacement Recoil Spring came today, I measured it agai...

What does your P-64 do?

Tunnelrat, how are you holding your P-64? I had an extra grip sleeve that I had taken off my Glock 27. With the sleeve on I must have been using a much higher grip than usual. I think it was the slide that got me. I've never had a hammerbite from any of my Hi-Powers or my 1911's. I've had to wait f...

Does the Slide Impact the Trigger Guard?

A dear friend and fellow P-64 shooter pointed this out to me: Once you get the gun field stripped hold the frame in your hand (just the frame). Put the trigger guard in its normal position. Now look where the end of the trigger guard protrudes up into the frame. That particular position is precisely...

What does your P-64 do?

You gentlemen make some wonderful points: shooting .44 Magnums and .500 Linebaughs isn't just fun; it is also punishment. But that is part of the price you pay for shooting big bore revolvers. I confess that when I'd take my Super Blackhawk out for a spin, I'd only shoot 18 to 24 rounds. That was pl...

What does your P-64 do?

tunnelrat, Hey! I beleive I recognize you, don't you go by another name in Ohio? Hi, Cruiser, I took your advice and looked at this website. Very nice! Plenty of information and lots of cranky posters. It's just like home... ;) I especially appreciate the P-64 manual and that Stan is keeping after ...

ATF and the P-64

The ATF Point System is of particular interest to me because the city of Toledo has adopted it as the criteria for legal firearms. The city has concluded that the PPK/s is legal, but is the P-64 a close enough clone of the PPPK/s to qualify? Try as I might, the best score I get for this little pisto...

So what else are people shooting?

There is one round listed above that has no votes and it is the .44 Special. I don't know if any of you have this caliber, but I have a Taurus 5" barrel revolver that has the best trigger pull I have felt on a revolver. The mild recoil of the .44 Special makes it a great shooter. This is the p...

Your location

Be willing to bet that not many of you have been to Pine Island...
I've got a friend in the Keys who has a boat (he keeps inviting me down there to sail with him). Anyhow the guy who fixes his boat (would that be a boatwright...?) has just moved to Pine Island.
