The Unofficial P64 Resource Forum

I measured the groove diameter of my P83 and it dimensionally checked at .3672 to .3674. Does that seem a little large or is it ok? I looked all over the net and couldn't find any groove diameter dimensions for any Makarov style pistol. Does anyone have a web site or manual that would confirm the gr...

Too bad they aren't reliable they are a good looking pistol but looks are everything.

I was missing the loaded bullet pin and spring so JGSales are sending me one. I paid an extra $10 for them to ...

I'm new to the forum and I don't have a P64 as yet but I have a P83 and just haven't found the really nice P-64 I want. When I get a P-64 I will lighten up the springs and put new rubber grips on it and then carry it concealed. It looks like a good pistol to carry due to its size and hitting power r...
