I have three pistols chambered in 9x18 Makarov that I've collected over the years. The first picture is a late model CZ-82. The Czechs were, once again forced to produce a pistol in a caliber mandated by the Soviet Union and the Warsaw Pact. However, they also produced the CZ-83 in 9x17 (.380 ACP). The CZ-82 is looks just like the CZ-83 and they both use the same magazine. Unique to the CZ-82 is the use of very suttle polygonal rifling. When you first look down the bore, you would swear that it's a smooth bore. The second two photos show a military Bulgarian Makarov (top) and a Russian commercial IJ-7018A Makarov (bottom). All these pistols are good shooters. I reload some 9x18 with Hornady's 95-grain XTP.
