The good news. My P-64 shoots better than the Bulgy Mak and the PA-63.
50 Rounds at 21', offhand, 2-hand grip.
The bad news. I started to have problems with the last mag. I looked down and the pin for the trigger guard was working itself out. I can't get it to line up and re-seat. It may have bent. Has anyone else had this occur?
The PA-63 shot very well, just not to point of aim.

you made need a new spring in there
but this is how its done
If you have a vise its not so bad, take a wash cloth fold it in half , put gun and cloth between jaws of vise like in pix
then slowly tighten jaws on vise tell you can push pin in or out
PS . REMOVE GRIPS AND RECOIL SPRING

Bob,
I had the same problem, only the trigger hinge pin on mine would walk itself out after only shooting a few mags worth of ammo.
I replaced the pin with a 1/8th inch diameter roll pin that I picked up from Lowes. I got the 1 inch length pins and cut one with a jewelers file to the same length as the original pin. Getting the roll pin in its new home was kind of a challenge but it has yet to even think about walking its way out while I'm shooting.
The roll pin is definitely uglier than the original, but this is my carry pistol so I am more concerned with its not-flying-apart-when-I-need-it-the-most ability than I was concerned with the visual aesthetics of the gun. I blued the ends of the pin so its hardly noticeable anyways.

Hey Norm....... >:(
Where did you get the cool Zebrano wood magazine floorplate?
I have seen the vise photo a few times, but I just noticed that.
Would this have anything to do with the discussion about Dennis having friends outside of Hungary?
