New guy, with videos of my P-64 in action...

Post by Whahappen »

Hello all, I'm a newer P-64 owner checking in. I got a decent one made in 1973 from AIM just over a month ago, and its my first C&R purchace. Kinda neat getting guns shipped right to your door 8).

Anyways, I have roughly 350 faultless rounds through it, about half at the normal range, and the other half doing action pistol and bowling pin shoots. I've read it here before, but I'm still amazed by the accuracy of this little thing. Bowling pins at 70ft are downright easy! Its a great shooter for sure, but acutaly gets fun after the typical wolf spring changes. The slide had a tendancy to bite before the recoil spring, having big hands and wanting to do a high hold will do that.

I mainly bought it for summer pocket carry, so practice at the weekly action pistol shoots has been fun as well. They aren't full on IDPA matches or anything, but run in that style and competition is pretty low key and beginer friendly. Perfect to practice with carry guns that wouldn't make good competition guns :wink:. So heres two variations of the same stage shot with my P-64:





The first one you had to retreat with 1 shot at each bad guy, reload on the far mat and advance with one shot. Mag retention wasn't necessary, but I tried anyways. Didn't work so I just dropped it. The second were doubble taps strong hand only. My holster is a cheapy uncle mikes size 2. It works well, but jean pockets are a bit tighter than the cargo shorts I normaly carry it in. You can kinda tell in the 2nd vid it takes a second to draw, something I'll have to work on a bit with jeans.

Overall I'm very pleased with the P-64, its an interesting gun and fills my summer carry need nicely.
