You are completely right about the Makarov, although I doubt you can still get them for $99.00 unless you are a dealer.

You are wrong about them being fairly accurate tho. They are extremely accurate. I wouldn't doubt they are the most accurate production, fighting type pistol ever made. I had a Russian made one which would put all it's shots in a single slightly enlarged hole at 30 feet. That is if I was very careful and shooting from a rest. This was using Russian surplus ammo too.

Accuracy depends on the individual shooting. But yes, MAKAROV's can be amazingly accurate for such a small, low-cal. weapon.

The East German models have adjustable sights, but I prefer the Bulgarian. They don't snag easily on clothing,etc. I shoot mostly WOLF or S&B. Cor-Bon for "home use."
