Guys,

This is a little off topic from the P-64, but not really! We all love our handguns, enjoy shooting them, but we MUST be careful, they can harm us if we don't do our part in keeping safe.

Attached is a link to a thread on Gunboards Forums of a gentleman that accidentallu shot himself in the hand from "complacency" with the pistol. These are a little graphic and show the effects of what a Hydro-Shok will do. Here is the link: http://www.gunboards.com/forums/topic.a ... _ID=139310

Always keep safety in mind when handling any weapon. Remember that they are always loaded and ready to fire regardless of what you think.

Hey guys watch this:
Image
That is uniform of "Polish Rails" security guardsman(S.O.K - Straż Ochrony Kolei). He was shoot with his own P-64 by his friend :o(He said that). He has bullet proof vest but bullet come under the vest :(. Probably the true is that he has loaded and unsafe gun in holster ???. The gun was fall out from the holster and hit the ground - there is possible that pistol shoot from hitting. Than he want save himself and said that his "Friend" do this. This show how "professional" He was.

bartosO61,
I wanted to tell you I enjoy reading your posts. Sorry if this is off topic, but I visited your website and unfortunatly the link to what you do is not working. Are you Polish Military?

Back to the post above. Have you experienced the P-64 firing from being dropped, with a round chambered? I have read several posts that indicate this is almost impossible. Of course I guess anything is possible, but unlikely.
Again, appreciate your information. You are an asset to this forum.
