Man, that Makarov in a “CLOSE_IN” weapon. Almost might as well hit the perp with it. As in bash him in the head.

Still, in urban warfare, etc...

Oh, I don’t know...

Just about every day, we see people making 100 yd snap-shots in the ten-ring, with a .38 Chief’s Special, 1” barrel..

Then, they go to commercial... ;)

Those little Czech CZ pistols are wicked accurate my friend. I had no trouble dumping a full mag in the 7 ring of a silhouette target at 21 feet, rapid fire. Really controllable, real reliable, and the punch of a .38 special.

I bought them so me and the Mrs. could have the same pistol in our car bags. Two spare mags each and a box of ammo that fits in your pocket. All for less than $300 per. That’s a damned bargain my friend.

If I could have afforded “better” I would have done it. But after getting to know those fine little pistols I’m completely confident they’ll do the job if we ever need them to.

Just my opinion, of course.
