Parts most likely to break

Hello All,

please excuse this post if this has already been beaten to death. If so, I will be glad to remove it.

I was wondering if some experienced P-64 users knew which parts were most likely to fail so that I could possibly, if found, store some extras. I have a compulsive tendency to do this with all surplus firearms so just thought Id ask.

Thanks in advance for any help, and sorry if this has already been answered.

Safety levers x10.

That's really it. I personally choose to have a few extra parts like firing pin and springs. But if you can find safeties..that's the one I've heard of breaking the most.

I'm afraid you have it wrong. The Safety does not break that often. However when it does, it's the one that is the hardest to find. And not interchangeable with any other part.

Figured I'd throw it in here as well... In no way am I associated with the guy... But apparently someone on eBay had P-64 Safeties made and he is selling the extras. It's a steep asking price in my opinion, but I know a lot of people keep asking for these.
