The Makarov being a 'product improvement' of the Walther PP in a caliber that is acceptable for defense becoming popular in the US is no suprise.
I call tacticool taticruel because it is just plain goofy to bolt five pounds of gear on a seven pound rifle to make it good enough for battle, but hey, it sure does sell lots of accessories that bring a much better mark-up than the gun alone is getting nowadays.
.22s will never go out of style but there aren't enough really good new production rifles available.
Most of the American made .22 rifles are pure crap anymore.
There aren't enough really good target grade pistols available and not everybody wants to patronize Ruger.
I own Smith and Wesson but all of them except one were made way before this Company sold out to the feds.
Why can't any of the manufacturers figure out good iron sights belong on rifles with classic American lines.
Does this simple addition cut that deeply into the bottom line???
No bother, I make very good money installing what the Companies won't at the factory, but this oversight shouldn't be.
Junky guns never last more than twenty five years.
Good guns last much longer than the average human lifetime and really good guns bought right can add substantial value to a retirement portfolio.
Caveat Emptor, no better advice has ever been given to the consumer and that advice is over two thousand years old now.
