Re: Problem with a Walther SSP

Since I started this thread I thought I should post the result: After a long period of trying to isolate the problem and emails to Walther USA and Walther Germany it was decided that the only thing left to replace was the bolt. I sent the pistol back and the Smith at Walther replaced the bolt, sprin...

Re: Problem with a Walther SSP

jbshooter - I chased trigger adjustments for nearly a year including 2 trips back to Walther. I'm now certain that it is slam-firing as I recovered the spent brass that hasn't been hit by the firing pin.(I wish I had thought of this months ago) The pistol is only 10 months old and it's happened from...

Re: Problem with a Walther SSP

j-team, I believe you are right. After A LOT of work on the trigger, including sending back to Walther where they installed a new trigger group I think I've settled on the problem.

Re: Problem with a Walther SSP

Thanks for the replies. I'm sure it's the sear engagement and since posting this I've found an article on how to adjust it. There's 7 or 8 adjustments you can make to the trigger group.

Problem with a Walther SSP

I have a new SSP that is clean and oiled that is experiencing multiple rounds being fired with 1 pull of the trigger. I've tried all types of ammo including HV and SV and the problem is worse with HV (once 3 rounds fired with 1 trigger pull). I just got the pistol back from Walther where they said t...
