“The 9x19mm carry crowd is significant, that is true,” continued Otrepyev, “but the number of American men and women who rely on 9x18mm Makarovs to protect their families and homes is much greater.

I have a tough time believing this is true.

If you made it this far, happy April Fools’ Day! The Glock 47 is not a real product (to our knowledge) so please, please, please don’t bug Glock about it.

9x18 far weaker than a 9x19. Who is the re-re who wrote this?

A word about posting satire

No, FR is not trying to quash satire. However, it should be clearly labeled as such in the title. Some people seem to think it’s great trickling our readers into falling for satire. It’s not. A lot of people come to FR and scan the headlines clicking on articles of interest. If they’re not familiar with the author or source, they may be misled and may even pass it on to others. No thanks.

If you post satire, please label it as “satire’ in the title.

April fool aside, I have been looking at an H&K USP in .45 ACP. Very Nice.

I was going to order that Makarov Glock as it sounded like a great CCW option. Then I found out from my distributor that it will only be offered in the US with a 9” long integral suppressor. Plain and without the can, you can only get it in former east bloc countries. And it requires berdan-primed ammo for some reason...

So, darn.

9mm Mak is superior to 9mm Luger?? Nonsense. Stalinist-type propaganda. Anybody who would believe this knows nothing about ballistics.

The Soviet-designed 9x18mm cartridge is well-known for its ability to defeat soft body armor

You need 7.62X25 for that. Do a number on a kevlar helmet. CZ52 is not for beginners. Can be kind of DIY. Hat tip to Travis McGee. Formerly easy to get ammo is not so cheap and easy to come by.

Dear Anton: Weak Euro-crappy (far left): Nein! Get back with us when you have a 7.62X25 (Tokarev, far right) plastic fantastic. 9X18 Makarov versus 9X19 Luger photo:  ammo.jpg
