Thank you!

I seem to have an older version of the GSP manual, because my manual reads nothing like what you posted.

I will take you up on your kind offer and PM you for an electronic copy of the current manual.

Many thanks,


Peter

Walther GSP trigger sticking

All, I have a Walther GSP Expert that is about 7-8 years old, which I recently picked up used. Every so often the trigger does not reset after firing. A second attempt will fire it... however while merely annoying on slow fire, it is obviously a big issue shooting rapid! On checking I found that the...

While I take some solace in noting that apparently the problem is not unique to me, I must say it is a major disappointment to see such a lapse in quality from Walther, who normally have a reputation for a superlative product.

Take a look at the Walther website and see exactly the finish on current production pistols... this is what is on my pistol.

Thus my question, anyone else with a current model GSP who is not happy with the finish or having problems with it?

To be clear, I was referring to problems with the paint-like finish to the frame, no the blue on the recoil moderator on the front of the barrel. Is this common with the new model GSP?

Walther GSP Finish

I just picked up a six year old (current model) Walther GSP Expert, with the receiver finished in what looks like some sort of brushed aluminum coating (although I don't know what it really is). I have noticed some small spots where the finish has flaked off. Has anyone else had similar problems wit...

Thank you Bob, I think you have my answer on the sight markings... and I guess I am a bit chagrined for not paying closer attention to the brochure and figuring it out myself!

Thank-you for the info. I have adjusted the grip, trigger travel and trigger angle to suit my smallish hand, and have changed the rear sight blade. I have not touched anything else as it already seems to have a very sweet trigger pull. I will take your advice and not play with the recoil dampening r...

The bigger the number seems to indicate the...
