Always wanted one, its like my dream gun because it is so unique in good ways but especially for being used they are too expensive for me for a while. May I ask how much you paid
And don't you know that the bullets in the mag are supposed to be facing the other way?
Yeah, can you explain that? I've seen people pose their mag with the top bullet in backward, and the example that comes to mind was on here a while ago and it was defended by showing the cover of some HK manual where the bullets were backward in the magazine...what's the story?
Beautiful pistol!
I'm working on getting one right now. I've got my eye on one at a Gander Mountain as well. Yours looks MINT! Congrats!
I have no idea why I'm so strongly drawn to them. But I am!
Any brush for a .270 caliber will suffice. I would, however, spend the time and effort to find a genuine HK scraper for the gas chamber. Number one, it works like a charm, number two, the tolerances are VERY tight in there, and number three, I tried one of the aftermarket knock-offs, and it was crap.
Any soft nylon brush works on the piston, just take it real easy, and don't do anything to dull the sharp edges.
As for holsters, I recommend Matt DelFatti - worth the money and the wait!
Finally, I would agree that a second/third mag is a must. For awhile, these mags were going for over $100. Then, about a year or two ago, HK made another run of several thousand P7 mags. You can still find them now for about $60 before they dry up again. (You can run over these mags with your truck, pick them up, insert them in your P7 and fire away!)
Have you figured out if you shoot more than 50 rds you'll burn your support hand fingers? Love my P7M8 but watch the heat!
