I noticed when I fire my P-64, that it throws the brass (steel? I've been using Wolf brand ammo...) eight to ten feet and sometimes farther. So, I ordered a replacement Recoil Spring from a seller on Ebay (http://tinyurl.com/cm3gu).
When the replacement Recoil Spring came today, I measured it against the one that was original with the gun. The new spring is a full coil longer. I'll try to give you guys a report in a few days whether it makes much difference in felt recoil and in scattering brass.

Shouldn't be any difference. I'll be willing to bet that this spring came right out of a working 64. Why are you concerned about where the brass goes?

I would think this to be true as well. Also, there are NO makers of improved or different weight recoil springs for our 64 as of yet, so I would be weary of installing it. Wolff is hearing us and will probably venture down that road at some point. Be careful.Shouldn't be any difference. I'll be willing to bet that this spring came right out of a working 64.

Replacement Recoil Spring
The Ebay seller just took another P-64 apart, and is tring to get rich quick. Roughly $300+ worth of listings, and that doesn't include the frame.
The recoil spring should be OK, but the long case throws are here to stay, at least until Wollf perfects a real replacement.
Noticed that the grips he has are the thumbrest, too.
