Just picked up a makarov from my local pawn shop as my first pistol for $250 with one magazine. Did I do good? Any tips for this thing?
>>
>>34380202
which makarov? Bulgarian, polish, early or late Russian? How many boolets fit in the mag? Where does the slide seat? Either way that's not a bad price to pay. I recommend replacing the magazine and recoil springs, and stocking up on as much ammo as you can.
>>
>>34380241
Bulgarian, I would take a picture but my phone is busted. 8 boolets I think, I just got it today so I still have to buy some ammo online.
>>
>>34380202
Not great but not bad I suppose, but I'm comparing to way back when you could get two mags, a set of bakelite grips and dick grips, holster, and cleaning rod for a mint snakarov for that price, or cheaper depending on the sale.

>relentless one - upmanship...
Ah, /k/
>>
>>34380202
That's good. I just paid $275, and $300 is pretty typical
>>
>>34380202
Not a bad deal really, not killer.
It's a good gun, my mak is bulgi too.

Hey Uncle Sam, this is exactly how much ammo I have and how much I stock per purchase, have my transaction history for free!

Yes. 300 with 2 mags is fairly standard.

Not the guy you originally responded to, so this doesn't really work as an insult.

How so? You obviously have zero word comprehension. You can't conceive of your own retardation. I guess it can be seen as an insult but it's just fact mate. My condolences to your mum

There is 9x18 Makarov at EVERY LGS in my area with the exception of big box stores. What under-stocked/underdeveloped Flyoverstan state do you live in that doesn't have mak ammo?
>>
>>34380363
They sell 9x18 at my local walmart.

junk round. man up and shoot 9x21 or 9x23

You guys are achieving callum tier levels of autism here.
OP specifically said he has to buy mak online. Read the fucking thread before commenting.
>>
>>34380681
>>34380769
>>34380814
>>I just got it today so I still have to buy some ammo online.
OPs exact words
>>
>>34380868
You're not terribly gifted at communication. Not every use of the word "have" means that there's literally no way around it.

He has to buy some ammo online for it because he just got it. Why would he have checked all LGSs for it since he just bought it apparently on a whim?
>>
>>34380887
That was a pathetic attempt at justifying stupidity. Again that makes my original point more valid. If he doesn't even have to buy the ammo online but still chooses to, he is more retarded than originally anticipated

Arguing for the sake of arguing, giving me free (you)s, and somehow being smug about it. Too bad your siblings died in your mom's asshole, they would have been better for society than you.

Buffalo bore and underwood (I think) both make some hardcast flatnose rounds that feed fine in my bulgy. Not a great idea to go for expansion at the expense of penetration when the penetration's not great to start with.

Good idea to get a new recoil spring from wolff. When I got mine, it was hurling shells into neighboring zip codes.
>>
>>34380561
OP bought theirs from the local pawn shop.
Are you illiterate?
>>
>>34380394
Kek. What's this thing?
>>
>>34380504
I got mine 7 months ago or so from sportsman's guide. $210 for Bulgy. Two mags. No dick grip tho. Bought one later for $25. Then two more mags for $70. So 305 altogether for four mags and extra carry grip.
>>
>>34381158
Dick Tracy cap pistol. I figure it's relevant to any Mak thread.
>>
>>34380202

That's really good considering it's the current year. I got mine for $300 back in 2012. I got ripped off pretty bad because I didn't do my research at the time.
>>
>>34380202
I got my IJ-70 at that price with 2 mags and a 150 rounds of ammo.

Either way you did just fine, I'd gladly have paid 250 for it.

Only tip I have is buy ammo when you see it.
