How are you carrying the P-64?

I carry one in the chamber with the safety off and the hammer down. This works for me because I switch between three guns. P-64, Makarov and CZ-82. All 9x18 and all have heavy DA actions.

Mike of the weird failures

Caution: do not over tighten grip screw!
I had a tight magazine yesterday, turned out that I had over tightened the grip screw and the mag was rubbing against the inside of the left grip.

Grips & Magazines

It is a shame the guy selling the magazines is not having a dutch auction. $15 is the lowest I have seen them go for. Most of them are in the $20 range. He had 12 magazines. Four of us bidder got six at $15.00 each. I was first bidder for one. These are the remaining six. And I still do not underst...

This is a three finger grooves, I love it. Found a slip on grip made by Pachmayr, Slip-On Grip Medium w/finger grooves the size is model #3. Good fit and just what I needed. I did need to trim a little off the tip of the heel. Found it at a local gun shop. About $9.00. Link is for picture ref. http:...

Flying Slide!

Were you holding it with your finger around the front of the trigger guard?
As big as my hands are, I probably was. I also am really glad to hear that it happened to someone else! Since then I have added a slip on Pachmayr grip.

Flying Slide!

It is my guess that the trigger guard release became disengaged while firing. With my paying more attention to how I hold this little beast it has not happened again. It is a 1976 year and appears to be brand new. I have since aquired a 1977 new. I am putting that one away! I just wanted some opinio...

Flying Slide!

I once had the slide fly off while shooting (in my backyard) it landed about six feet in front of me in the grass. How could this happen? Since that incident I pay closer attention to how I hold the gun and glance at the safety after shots. Possabilty: 1. Saftey going on during recoil? 2. Trigger gu...

EBAY P64 holster...

Just received my eBay holster today. And he either ran out of magazines and cleaning tools or got greedy? A very nice new holster but that is all I got!

Woud you like this here?

How about including all 9x18 handguns?
Since I got hooked on Makarovs I have decided that anything I can shoot 9x18 ammo in can't be all bad and is worth my interest. I now have the p-64 and a CZ82.
