Special Tools
Posted: Sun Feb 11, 2018 6:23 am
I have a number of Walther GSP-type target pistols. Each came with a special tool - see right hand implement in the photo. The top centre protrusion is hooked.
I also have a number of Baikal 35M target pistols (both Baikal and the Walther KSP200). My club also has a bunch of Baikal MP46M air pistols. All came with a special tool - see the left hand implement in the photo.
Apart from the obvious screwdriver blade ends, I would like to know what the other protrusions are for?
A very experience fellow club member suggested that the top projection on the Baikal tool (left hand implement) is a magazine feed lips gauge. I'm inclined to that opinion too as it is the correct width and I've used it to ensue the lips on one of my pistols, which was having feeding problems, were opened up enough.
Has anyone any thoughts about any or all of these odd protrusions?
