I just bought a Bulgarian 9mm Makarov for $130. Post WWII military manufactured with a chrome bore and in excellent overall condition.
I am going to have it finished, internals and all, by Ed A. Brown Co. in their propriatary "French grey" which is a metal surface coating that makes the gun impervious to just about anything. I can have Novak carry sights installed for $120 through
www.makarov.com
It came w/ 2-8rd mags cleaning rod and a spare set of grips.
I plan to carry it on a daily basis once it gets refinished.
Their reliability, IMO, is unmatched, and ...as always...if you do your part, the gun will do it's!
