I'm moving back to America in a couple of months and was looking for a first carry/first ever handgun and the p64 pistol and Makarov both really caught my eye. Anybody had any experience with either of these? Is 9X18 too much for a first handgun?

Ghetto as fuck. Literally why tier.

Get a LCR or LCP or something you goofball

I have a Makaroni.
9x18 isn't too much too handle.
Its a reliable small gun with an unique charm.
I can only recommend getting one.

Money wise perhaps, surplus is getting harder to find and not too many domestic manufacturers make 9X18. Supposedly you can easily switch a makarov to .380, which you can find just about everywhere.

P64 is 230$ and you gotta love that fpsRussia vibe.

I CCW a bulgy mak. Mostly because I am best at shooting this pistol. I used to have a shield 9mm but I like this (and DA/SA over striker) better.

Is this 14 dollars a lot for 50 rounds? I honestly don't know.

To do an FFL purchase do I just find someone near me to do an FFL transfer?

>>29444981
OP the grip is modeled after a flaccid dick.

They have to be an FFL license holder, and you will have to pay them. Some places are nice and do it for like $15, some places are dickish and do $50, and different areas have different prices.
>>
>>29445088
SOG only sells to shops or C&R holders.
>>
>>29445088
I just got mine in today.

You order it from the online site and give them the fax number for a local gun store. Once the gun store sends over their FFL creds the site can then ship it to them. My shop had a $30 fee for the transfer but other then that it was a breeze.

They have four different listings for the P64, which would be the one too buy?

Also damn the price jumped up a ton for the Star B's just in the last week alone.

You should consider the insanity the makarov incites in people first.
>>29443722

OP just cooked his mak in noodles, beef cubes, vodka, lime juice, chicken nuggets, and his own blood and horse mask. You might want to avoid anything covered in cosmoline for the time being.

Here's another one for you to look at. J&G is a really good company. They're out of Prescott, AZ so if you're not near there you'll definitely need to find someone to do a transfer for you.
