Hi guys
I’ve recently bought a Pardini K58 and the seals need to be replaced.
I’m looking to do the work myself but I need a disassembly guide if anyone has one or links to one I’d really appreciate it.
I have emailed Pardini USA and they don’t have any guides.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Greetings,
Here is a link to the Parts Diagram. Perhaps it will be of use.

Thanks Dave
There was a link on here from years ago with photos but it’s not a valid website any longer and the user is no longer active on this forum. I was hoping that someone kept a copy of the instructions.

Thanks for finding that web archive!
Great resource!
The only seal that was not replaced in that article is the breech seal.
Here's a picture of the breech seal, using two O-rings instead of the original factory part. Those tend to be old stock prone to failure.
The alternative shown uses two Metric 1.2x3.5 BN70 seals.

It's great that we finally have this k58 compiled in one thread.
I've noticed that on the TenP files at Pilkington that occasionally a notable thread will get linked as a reference when looking up a particular gun.
I think this thread merits such distinction.
What do y'all think?

Does anyone know how many K58s were made and over what years they were manufactured?
From the images available on the internet there seems to be at least 3 different versions of the gun through its life.
Early ones seem to have yellow markings on the rear sight and later ones had red markings. There’s also a pic with a version with a black breech cover, different rear sight and white markings on the side of the gun.

Old thread i know but not much info on these so i just wanted to add that Pardini just confirmed my K58 was made May 2007, (i thought they only made them from mid 80's to mid 90's).
It has the black breech cover, red markings on rear sight, white markings on side of the action and the trigger shoe is like the current Pardini triggers.
