PP Shooter Question...?

[Pete Ebbink]

Now for the interesting 2nd. part and my questions :

While I know that PP's should be double-action, this one is modified to shoot only in single-action mode and the safety lever now serves as a decocking lever.

Have any of you folks here on the LF run across such a modified PP ?

I took several photos to illustrate the gun's action :

Photo # 1 - Trigger at rest (double-action position), hammer down, and safety lever in the fire mode. Pulling on the trigger results in no movement, rearwards.



Photo # 2 - Hammer was manually cocked and trigger is in its single-action position. Safety lever is still in the fire mode.



Photo # 3 - Using the safety lever and sweeping it downwards, the hammer is automatically dropped but the trigger stays in its single-action position.



Photo # 4 - Sweeping the safety lever upwards, the trigger returns to its double-action position and gun is restored to the same state as in photo # 1.



I have a Daewoo DP-51 from the early 1990's that has that modified triple-action. This modified PP reminds me alot of that Daewoo.

I have not yet had a chance to take this PP to the range. I will be careful and let you know how it acts and shoots...
