Range report and evaluation
Posted: November 20th, 2012, 9:21 am
Good Day!
The recently aquired P64 was taken to the local range and here is what I found out:
1. After reading all about others and thier experience with the P64 regarding accuracy, I found this
to be absolutley correct! This little pistol is a 'dinger' for sure! No matter what the distance- 3,5,7 15 or 25 yards, where ever I pointed the pistol it hit what I was aiming at! When using a sandbag rest all the holes were touching or extremely close in proximity to each other. 100 rounds of S&B were ran through 'her'.
2. Failure to Feed, Eject, Fire- None, nadda' this pistol runs like a T-34 tank.
3. I did not experince any problems with the slide "biting" into the webb of my hand, or trigger slap etc. Oh sure it was "snappy" with recoil, but I think it will be tamed down with replacement of a
22# recoil spring, and likewise a 18 # hammer spring.
4. When I make the changes to the springs, pick up an additional magazine, and trim down the safety detent spring, and re-test it, I would have no doubts I am sure of carrying this everyday as a back up or primary CCW.
My 2 cents worth.
