Enjoy your new acquisition . I have a SMC in 380 and it is a nice little gun. All blued. Runs good and looks good. Very small package. Easy to handle and I have large hands.
 
I have one in 380, they are neat little pistols--think I paid $100 for mine. A drop of bright orange paint on the back of the front sight does wonders for the sight picture.
 
Yep, I keep fluorescent orange fingernail polish on hand for just such an occasion, it works awesome.

Good pick up. Solid quality little pistols.

I've had a couple of them over the years. Back in the 1990s, seems they were everywhere for $99.00 and I always seemed to have one, sell it or trade it off and then get another one because they were so affordable. My Ex kept my last one when we split in early 2000s and I've not seen anymore for sale since.

Yep, there hasn't been much of a lot of things around since most everything dried up and disappeared when Bozo was still in office and they were trying to pass all the anti-gun nonsense. Even the Saturday night specials and the chitty' little 25 acp's we're going for absurd amounts of $. Thankfully things have slowed down and returned to somewhat normal and some things are starting to come back even if they're a bit more these days.
 
I have a Polish P-64 and the replacement P-84 and love them. A solid feel. Not "top heavy" like my Glock 23.
How many does the 83 hold and does it have a decocker?
I am waiting for the items from MidwayUSA so I can start trimming 9x19 to 9x18.
I am open to suggestions on how to keep the 9x18 separate from the 9x18. Red sharpie??
 
I saw these guns for the first time the other day. They definitely look cool! Congrats, gsbuickman! Awesome pistol!

My FEG 63 and my Bersa Thunder hold 7+1 rds.. The 63 also has the same safety / decocker as my thunder.shown here.

The 83 holds eight and has a decocker. Sharpie sounds like a good a solution as any-- they surely are hard to keep separated!
 
Well drat, when I was looking to order a set of Wolff Hammer Springs I checked with Midway USA and it said they were on back order, so I went directly to Wolff's website and it didn't say anything about them being on backorder So I placed my order directly with them. I really haven't been paying much attention but I noticed today while going through my bank transactions that they hadn't charged me for the Springs yet so I decided to give them a call and see what was going on. It turns out they're still on backorder and they couldn't give me an idea of when they would be in so they might be out for a while, so I guess I'll just wait and see.

On another note the Monarch ammo that I ordered from Academy Sports is on the way. The jhp's were sent from Spring, TX. Their sitting in SLC which means I'll have them tomorrow. The fmj rds were sent from Macon, GA. Idk where their at but according to the FedEx tracking number which isn't tracking their supposed to be here by Friday.

Since that Mak projectile is something like .363" or so in diameter, you're gonna want to put a REAL bell mouth on that casing...

A PA-63 as my first EDC gun for a couple of years...then to a Bersa Thunder...and finally to a S&W 642. My PA-63 was absolutely reliable.

If you want springs, let me know. I sold the gun and forgot I had spring sets from Wolff. You can have them for free if you want. PM me.
 
Bought some (PA63's) from J&G in Prescott, AZ when they were I think $89.95. At that time put a set of Walther springs in them. Great little gun for the money and we were at the store so were able to pick through a selection. All were in very good condition.

Thank you, that would be greatly appreciated since the springs that I ordered from Wolff for my PA63 on the 18th of last month's are on backorder and they haven't even shipped yet. I seem to be having trouble sending you a message, so if you don't get one please send me one. Thanks
