SOLD - Excellent 1976 Russian Makarov PM

Description

11/16/25 - This is a 1976 Russian military Makarov pistol in near-mint condition, though it was likely arsenal restored. It is not import marked. This one is all matching and has retained all of its bluing. Minty bore. Fitted with excellent reddish plastic grips, with just some minor handling marks. Comes with one proper magazine. Makarov pistols had been produced in Russia in their original configuration since late 1950s with 1983 being the last year of production for the first variation guns. Very similar to Walther PP mechanically, it was chambered for a very potent Makarov 9x18mm caliber, which was closer to 9mm Para. The gun was very robust in construction in order to allow for a simple blowback design to handle such a potent load. At the same time, the gun was fairly light with excellent ergonomics. Used for many years by Russian military and police.
