Are all Makarov's created equal?

Doc, that last post doesn't make sense. How did "roll marks" on this "Afghanistan Bulgarian" pistol now come into play? BTW, the only pistols I saw in AFG, real or Khyber Pass, were Russian.

I spent 2 tours in VN and 2 in Afghanistan. I may be overly sensitive to false stories. Somebody else chime in, this stuff is getting to me.
 
He didn't change your gun - he showed a photo of a Bulgarian Arsenal gun that has identical markings to the one you claim you brought back. But Bulgarian Arsenals were made in the 90s. Why do you keep saying he showed your gun??
 
Sheesh Doc, you started out sort of reasonable. The slide on the Arsenal matches the picture you posted. You did not post a VN bringback.

AFG is bigger than you know. And there's even room for the 60 year olds. You can actually get involved in the effort instead of posting about your amazing war stories.

Agreed, the picture could have been anyone anytime. This is the internet.

Doc, if you want to question my service, my MOS, my time in AFG, and continue about your "killer VN Bringback" it will be offline.

You can figure out how to PM me?
 
Ok Doc. On 24th of May. Your son was according to you in Afgan and people were using Makarov's . I can buy that.
Then on the 28th you posted he was in Iraq and they (military) was issuing Glocks
Then on the 30th he sent you a Russian Makarov from Afgan. I question the legality of that But that aside. Your son sure gets around.
When some body questions what you say. You get very defensive . Then call them liars when they post a picture to back what they said . Why is that . Just asking very nicely
 
Seemed like a reasonable post from Michael T, who has made it through close to 4,000 posts on this forum. Was your son actually travelling back and forth so frequently? Must be a real important guy. On the 28th in Iraq, and then he sent the "Russian Makarov" on the 30th? I know the rigor of getting in country and the temporary housing etc. when you arrive - it was amazing that he could find a contact so soon to buy the pistol and then ship it illegally to you.
 
Ft Lewis: Only in Basic Training a long time ago.

I learned in AFG that rank has no privlidges. LTCs and below bunk in the temporary quarters at Bagram AFB along with the enlisted.

I am not feeling very warm and fuzzy about anything you have posted Doc.
 
Do you know anything at all about Makarovs? Of course not all Bulgarian models have the Arsenal roll mark! Man what a learned discussion this is. Arsenals are few and far between. How about your son travelling with the speed of light? Any more news on that?
 
Stop with the personal attacks. If anyone has issues with posting content - please just report the post.

Well, just to get this thread back on track....


I'm taking possession of my CZ82 tomorrow (Wisconsin 48 hour waiting period for handguns). I had a chance to look it over when it arrived at my FFL and it was absolutely stunning. It looks almost brand spankin' new.

Thank you to the good folks at AIM Surplus for picking out a winner.

I'll post pictures as soon as I can.
 
Wife has two of the all steel Model 85 Bersa 13 rd hicap.380s and she loves them. She was turned off by the Mak.
 
Hey Marshall, that's a hell of a nice looking piece! :)

I do bet you'd like to have that one back!
 
I just went back to the shop that started me thinking enough to create this thread, and they have TWO PA-63's for $225 each. I got to finally check it out first hand after knowing a little more about them, and I really really like that gun! I remember someone talking about how the PA-63 was too "wide", but after seeing people carry small XD's and Jframes, how could the PA be too wide!?!?! I think its perfect!

and since Murphy is a %&#$%!!! the radio in my wifes G35 went out last week and is sucking up our fun-money... %$&# - ^$E$%#

I should not have taken complete absurdeties personally. I do apologize to the forum. The High Road is a class act and I enjoy posts on many boards here.
 
Ok... now i know I have read TOO much about these guns.... I actually DREAMED about one last night!!!!!! ACtually, I dreamed that I was in a shootout and that mine was 16+1 and I put almost all 10 that I shot in COM... and checked the mag after and sure enough, still had 6 to go! Wouldnt THAT be sweet!

Ok, not sweet about the shootout, but I only got hit in the right knee and grazed over my left ear... CrAzY DrEaM.........................................
