Hey /k/, got a question I need answered.
So my local gun shop has one of these Baikal Makarovs in 380 for 299, and I'm really interested since 9x18 is sadly soon to be fairly expensive in the US.
My main question was if I bought the gun, would the colored hammers, safeties, and Bakelite grips of the Soviet and Bulgarian military pistols be interchangeable with the Baikal 380?
If so, I'm buying it tomorrow, but I'd like to know before I purchase it.
Shameless self bump

Why would it be fairly expensive? Yea we have an election coming in but who the fuck is gonna stockpile 9x18?

I would buy it. $300 is a "good" price since makarovs have been going up a lot lately. I'm pretty sure those parts are interchangeable as well. The grip for sure is.

Alright, I'll probably just buy the parts and see if they fit.
For sure I'll make a post about it if they do.
I picked up a near mint Bulgarian Mak online for $325 out my FFL door, came with 2 mags, black and red star grips, holster, original arsenal papers, cleaning rod. I do like the adjustable rear sight on the Baikal Maks. There are even some double stack Russian Maks, but they go for a much higher price, so you might as well get a CZ-82 at that point. I would say go with Baikal if you want adjustable sights, otherwise just get an Arsenal Mak that has all the features you want (the colored hammers/safeties will run you that $25 difference or more anyway). Ammo wise, I wouldn't worry about 9x18 going up that much, although compared to .380 it is almost 10 cents more per round currently.

Ok, fair enough trips-san. I admit, the Beretta is pretty sex.
