Yup. Moisin 's are in the house. How about Mausers?

What no Moisin?

Serious drool here Papbear. Very nice.

I did not read far enough to see about the "other side cosmetic problem". See Curly's post abiut this. Sorry.

Guys,
Classic has P-64's at $179.99. It says the condition is good but I bet it is the end of their last shipment. Still.............

Wolf shoots great in mine. All the combloc stuff does. Just a little dirty is all.

Well I hope that your fix is the fix the makes it right. Let us know.

Snailman, Is it not also true that it takes 22lbs of force to compress 1 inch of spring and that would it would indeed take 4 more pounds of force to compress a 22lb spring 1,inch than an 18lb spring 1 inch? and I also put it to you that that energy is absorbed by the recoil spring thereby removing ...

Robhic, If your slide hold open lever repair does not work you may have a spring problem, but it would be the spring that pushes down on the lever, It may have been weakened and it is not providing enough downforce to the lever to keep it in's it's proper place during firing. I may be wrong but it's...
