Three Makarovs

[TJm15.38]

Russian military PM with no import markings. Made in Izhevsk in 1976

That is an outstanding display. Thanks for the look. I wish I could have found a Russian Mak in that kind of condition when I first started collecting. One things for sure, you won't see any more of those Russian surplus guns imported.

I have a East German Surplus in 9mm Mak and a Commercial Russian in .380.

My toolbox P64 Makarov. Snappy for sure and heavy DA trigger...but gets the job done.. I liked it enough to buy a couple more.

I got 3 of the P64 "Polish Pounders" when they were cheap, about
15 years ago. They hit hard on both ends.

I have a Russian variant and a little ammo to go with it. Fine shooter with adjustable sights.

I love Makarovs, especially my East German, though I carry a Bulgarian. I bought a commercial in .380 when it was all that I could find and it has well over 7000 rounds, mostly lead reloads, through it. I replaced the adjustable sight with a fixed one and it wears East German grips.

Some of us find the Makarov's recessed heel magazine release to be a huge positive, especially those who prioritize magazine retention during EDC over fantasizing about John Wick quality reloads.

I've really gotten used to it and just accept the pistol as designed.
