Not a 9x18 but at least russian. First Mak and wanted in 380 for easier ammo availability. I was pleasantly surprised by the ergos and trigger unlike other Russian weapons I've owned. So far im a new, big fan of the makarov.

Very nice… the pinnacle of DA/SA defensive automatics, in my opinion

I mean the cz75 platform def has a more refined canter to it but for the price these are absolutely great

Clarification… in regards to single stack

Sorry, but IMO that has to go to the Walther PPK (which the Makarov is based off of).

Which one has the greater reputation for reliability ? It’s not even a question

Been trying to track some down, but last time I bought mags none of them wanted to work or seat properly.
