I've been trying to find time to post a few more "ComBlock" guns. To go with the four Makarovs that I have already shown, here are three more that use the same cartridge. Even those allied countries who chose not to use the Makarov design fielded handguns chambered for the same round.

Polish P 64



Hungarian PA 63



Czechoslavian CZ 82



These each come with distinctive holsters, which also differ from the standardized Makarov holster. I don't know about today, but back about 2004, I was crossing the border between Austria and Hungary on a bus, and the border gaurds who came aboard the bus were wearing the same holsters and carrying the same PA 63 as shown above.

Best Regards, Les
