Hey everyone,
Continuing with my goal of building up my collection, I purchased a Bulgarian Makarov from Classic.
I chose the hand select with the original Bakelite grips. After about 3hrs of soaking in mineral spirits and giving it a good clean, I reassembled the pistol.
I'm pretty happy with it, I think the date code is 1984 but I am not sure. The bore is in incredibly good condition, if it was ever shot then it barely shows.
Just curious, the firing pin seems to have no spring on it. How does it return back into the firing pin channel?
First surplus purchase and first with Classic and a local FFL - very happy!
