I just hang out with him, we discuss the Bible and politics for an hour, and we're both happy.

It was fresh out of a Century marked box. Since Centerfire is the only vendor advertising these, I am going to assume it came from there. I picked this up early in April: It shoots as good as the Manhurin PP or CZ50.

I'm just looking for another plinker, and I reload .32 so it should be cheap, hardly any powder in those as I recall. If mine looks as nice as your's I'd be thrilled.

I'd say it's in good-very good condition, and I'll post pics and a range report after I shoot it. This one is no looker. The black paint on the frame is heavily scraped in many places, and a soldier engraved his name and I guess unit number on the butt. It's tiny and unobtrusive; a little interesting even. Someday if I get the ambition and I'm otherwise bored I may repaint the frame, but I doubt it. The bore looks perfect. The double action trigger pull is horrid, worse than my PA-63 which says a lot. In single action, its excellent however, so that's a fair trade by me. If it's a good shooter, I'll be happy just the way it is. The grips were quite worn, but I had a nice like new set of the target grips on hand to swap out for them. I'll keep you all up to date, but if she shoots well, and I bet she does, I sure got my $90 worth.

Maybe we should Parkerize it? I also bought an airbrush over Christmas that I haven't used yet. Maybe we should duracoat it?

Maybe we could try the Duracoat, sounds like a good idea.

Mine is a great little shooter and could easily turn into a carry piece here on the farm. I'd get in trouble if I carried at work.

I don't think the alloy block is a problem with a low powered round.

I also bought a cheapie sandblaster that we could use.

It is strong and long lasting. Mine came from a dealer, in a box from Century, and is in near excellent condition. It has proven th be very reliable and more accurate than I expected, and I have been carrying it in a jeans pocket for about a month FWIW, for carry, I prefer S&B FMJ ammo for penetration and the hotter load (177 ft/lbs) of the S&B ammo. They are just about gone-the $90 ones still at Centerfire are sold out. Mark

IT LOOKS OK BUT I THINK THE CHAMBER IS WORN BECAUSE MY BRASS REALLY GETS BULGED AT THE BASE. IT MAKES RELOADING FOR THIS PISTOL KIND OF TOUGH. THE BRASS IS JUNK AFTER 1 FIRING.

First check that the recoil spring is OK, as these are blowback pistols. If it is I'd contact Centerfire right away.

If you get some glass bead for Cisco's blaster, it will leave a more pleasant "matte" finish than silica sand will. If you would like it painted, you might check around and see who does powdercoating in your area. Powder coating is much more durable than most any spraypaint although duracoat is pretty good too.
