    I clicked on this video because I watch every video about the p7 and was surprised that I learned some new things in this one.

    If they came out with a new model it would be a hit. Bring back your greatest hit HK.

    Our SWAT officers were issued the HK P7 in the ‘80s. It was a bit heavy but an excellent, very reliable weapon.

    As a long time owner of the PSP and M8 (purchased the PSP in 1983, M8 in '92) I appreciate this video. Learn something new every day!

    Fractured TIG welds must be from excessive bullet weight, or firing +p+ loads. If I recall correctly, HK recommends light 9mm ammo, like 115 grain. Despite owning one new since 1985, I have had zero failures due to parts breakage.

    You are missing the biggest failure I experienced with the P7 -- the sear lever spring (that long L-shaped thing with a loop on one end. Over time that spring will WEAKEN, especially if you over extend it during assembly/disassembly. When it is weak enough, the P7 will double fire on a single pull of the trigger (very occasionally) because the sear lever simply will not pop up fast to catch the sear. But, it may pop up just enough to pull the firing pin block down just enough. It'll sound like the fastest double tap ever, so fast that the 2nd round will go off while the pistol is still recoiling from the 1st shot and go way high. Originally, I though it's the sear that is worn because I could see a little rounding on the bearing edge after 20 years of use. But, replacing the striker did nothing. The problem still persist very occasionally. Replacing the sear lever spring brought the instances to an end.

    I think this is very interesting but it also reminds me of why they did not sell very well. Disassembled you realize how low the bore axis really is.

    The only thing wrong with the P7 , is that there aren't enough magazines and theye are too expensive when you do find some

  • @fw1421

    Good luck getting a new P7 slide. Getting any parts for a P7 is practically impossible. Hell,getting magazines is tough and stupid expensive in 2024.

      I already had the content for this near completion, apologies! The LEM video is coming, but I may have one more short one first….related to the current issues/controversy regarding the P320. But the next long form video is all things LEM, I promise!! 😂👍

    at the blowback cylinder that you show the hole is opposite to the insignia ... are they defective? the pin that holds the barrel is also holding the cylinder, correct?!

    • @lazywolfguns2471
      @lazywolfguns2471  7 месяцев назад

      Thanks for the reply! Not 100% sure I understand your question- but, these 2 gas tubes I have are not defective, they could be installed and are in perfect unused OEM condition. The gas tube/cylinder is held in place largely by friction, if you notice the raised 2 bright areas around the circumference of the OEM cylinders, one around the gas port and one at one end, those areas largely retain the cylinder in the frame as they are pressed in. However, if you also notice the semi cutout on the opposite side of the cylinder, that is where the trigger axle/pin passes through- as a secondary means to assure the cylinder never unintentionally comes out. Hopefully that answers your question, thanks!

    • @GolanPeled
      @GolanPeled 7 месяцев назад

      @@lazywolfguns2471my understanding is that the hole and the slot for the holding pin suppose to be on the same side. unless you drill the slot after installing the cylinder. it is more of a question rather an opinion. thanks

      Agree! The New Jersey State Police used them briefly in the 1980's, and they broke down continuously. Certainly, a unique gun, but very overrated, and not nearly worth the stupid prices they command.
