Re: Walther CP2 Match - stability issue

In my case I had my orings changed to original Walther spares and still had issues. But at least this part was surely ok. :) BTW: thanks for sharing very useful information. In my case it wouldnt help as it was very specific. But for most other "instability" issues this is the proper answe...

Re: Walther CP2 Match - stability issue

Hi Ed, Unfortunately I dont have that CP any more. When I was selling it I informed the guy it has issue even though now shoots well. I asked him to call me if something goes wrong but he never did so I assume pistol was working for at least couple more weeks. Honestly except of the wear of the grip...

Re: Walther CP2 Match - stability issue

Hopefully last update: After I did whatever possible on trigger side and hammer side the gun worked. It worked as long as you assembled it and fired immediately afterwards. It had very nice consistency and hammer spring regulation screw was almost at the bigining of the thread. One could shot for qu...

Re: Walther CP2 Match - stability issue

Damn. Still works inonsitently... Still after analyzing it I am not sure where the problem is. I lost my heart for this gun for a while. I have no more ideas. It is very clear the problem is connected with some part that can change its behaviour from shot to shoot and influence the power. It can hap...

Re: New world record on 50m pistol

My feeling is that they should much more update their product line-up. :) Seems they do not do that well in recent years with competition eating their market share out. That includes Matchguns with Cesare Morini in the lead... Interesting

Re: 5 shot airpistol discipline

Check 'Pistol Shooting' available by MEC. It is a very comprehensive book including chapter on rapid fire techniques. I wasnt interested in that part but one of my colleagues claims it helped him plenty. Book was written originally in German years back and just couple of months ago translated to Eng...

Re: Walther CP2 Match - stability issue

Some update: Trigger unit was surely a problem. Hammer catch was not paralel to the housing. Problem was from improper assembly - one side of frame was slightly bent and the perpendicular pin was not installed symmetrically. It is also clear that triger unit needs to be reinstalled very accurately i...

Re: FWB65 Safety

Surely, FWB65/80/90 can be dry fired once in a while without any harm. First of all it has no traditional seal but a soft metal ring (like in motor engine) so sealing is not damaged. And if I remember correctly piston front has additional plastic/rubber bumper in front to prevent metal to metal cont...

Re: Walther CP2 Match - stability issue

Now it is getting even more interesting. I received new hammer. On the occasion of replacing it I did full vivisection of the pistol. I checked every part of the valve and action to make sure everything works smoothly. Piece by piece I checked every element for defects and wear. All looks perfect. S...

Re: Walther CP2 Match - stability issue

I wish I could but unfortunately I don't know any place to buy Walther's spares in US. I am from Poland so I will try Walther's service in Germany. I think you should start with a call to local Walther distributor. If you use search and CP2 as a search term on this forum you will get a bunch of serv...

Re: Walther CP2 Match - stability issue

Thanks for suggestion FredB. I already checked that cylinders were ok. Valves are opening nicely and give nice flow of the gas. I think I accidentally found the solution. Or I should rather say that it manifested itself in quite interesting way... :) All of a sudden the lever didn't allow to cock th...

Thanks for suggestion Rover. I tried with tanks half filled.
But you inspired me to check one thing. I will come back with the result. In the meantime more comments welcome.

Walther CP2 Match - stability issue

Hi Guys, This is my first post here but I am heavy user of other forums. Until some time ago I was mainly focusing on HFT and recreational shooting but since few months I am very much into target shooting. Mainly AP. I own LP10 and few weeks back I acquired CP2 Match. Hope you can help with the foll...
