The Unofficial P64 Resource Forum

garryb, when you say "a very stiff hammer retract in single action" do you mean cocking the hammer? If so then yes, they are reasonably stiff when manually cocking the hammer. It's all about leverage, you have a pretty stubby hammer spur as opposed to say a normal revolver. Hope that answe...

Yes I think that is exactly what I was thinking of but somehow couldn't for the life of me describe. Like you said we;ll pick up in email. Thanks for the understanding.

dfunk. if you go to the first page of this thread and go down to the 12th photo of the rig being worn, that was exactly what I was looking for except left instead of right handed as I wear it in the middle of my back and want the butt facing towards my right side instead of my left which, as you kno...

The first holster that you see when you open this page is pretty much exactly the holster that I was asking you to make for me that you told my you couldn't make????????????????? What's up?

"In reality they are a 150 to 175 dollar surplus firearm that shoots an odd bullet." "...the P64 is, and should remain, a $200.00 gun on it's best day" If you sell yours in the future someone is going to get a heck of a deal at those prices. Oh I have no intention of selling min...

Your comparisons to Bersa or Taurus guns I am not particularly fond of, show me where you are coming. The p-64 I bought is c&r eligible because like Mauser, Enfield, Mosin-Nagant or Springfield it deserves a place in history. Not sure about the price although I paid more than 200.00 for mine. I...

I believe that like most commodities, the price will go where we send it. My dad use to have a saying when I would pay too much for something just because I wanted it right at the moment and wasn't willing to wait until the initial "whatever the market will bear" price didn't fly and it wa...

I have to agree with Curly on this one. It looks to be in damn nice condition for the year. I think I would just leave it alone as well.

PS. Hey Gary I just noticed that it's going to take me a LOT of posts to catch up to you. It'll probably never happen but I'll keep trying. LOL

I would buy a couple myself as every time I get the opportunity to buy a replacement part for my 64 I get it because it and myself are planning a lifelong marriage. It will be on the nightstand or in my pocket when my bad habits finally send me home to my maker <G>.

Sounds like you did the old revolver test to check the sear when hammer is cocked and push on it and if it does not drop then it passes. I could not tell from your post, or did not surmise from it, whether you carry with or without the safety. I am addressing your points in a round-about way becaus...

Like with ANY firearm safety comes first. I carry mine with 1 in the pipe also but I seldom take it out of the holster. For the most part, other than government buildings and hospitals, I ignore the "no firearms permitted on these premises" signs. Like my buddy that teaches the CCW courses...

In all likelihood the trigger spring is either worn out or broken off or weakened enough that it is slipping past the stud on the trigger bar. Norm has excellent step by step instructions and photos to walk you right through it. Stay safe and well.

I always use Horanday CD in all of my smaller calibre semi-autos. I've never had one to fail to load, fire, or eject and with that comes confidence which is why I only carried revolvers on duty as they were damn near "bullet proof" as they say. They (Hornday) also makes a much larger impac...

amd6547, If you have any extra cell phone cases for the older flip phones laying around they make excellent mag pouches. If not you can always get one from the nearest dollar store for a few bucks. I always get the ones with the magnetic closures, no fiddling around with snaps or Velcro. And, becaus...
