But there are pitfalls in finding one that works well enough to keep and further, to enjoy shooting.We recently tested a trio of surplus double-action guns chambered for. Buyers who want a low-priced plinking gun will often consider buying $200 to $300 sidearms because they (a) might not have much money to spend, or (b), they might be interested in some historical aspect of a particular gun, which they nonetheless still want to shoot for fun. Surplus pistols occupy a niche in the marketplace that is surprisingly large and varied.
The two Maks were the 9mm Makarov FEG PA63, (MSRP, $239 published dealer price, $89) and the Bulgarian Makarov (MSRP, $249 published dealer price, $109), which also shot the 9×18 round. 380 Auto round (MSRP, $229 published dealer price, $109). They were the Romanian M95 Carpati, which shot the.

At one time it was the standard pistol for both the Soviet forces and the Warsaw Pact countries. We estimate it was rated at 98 percent condition, and would likely sell for around $145.The Makarov pistol dates back to the early 1950s. Dealer price on this very pistol was $109.95. Here’s what we found:It is interesting to note that according to the Blue Book, value for a Makarov pistol in 100 percent condition is only $185.
The double-action trigger pull, while usable, stacks heavily. The front blade on our Bulgarian model was too brief in our estimation, but the sight picture was adequate. Our pistol offered generous cocking serrations on the rear portion of the slide and a small but effective rear sight that is drift adjustable for windage. The Mak is indeed comfortable in the hand. Both the Walther and the Makarov can be fired single or double action.One feature that makes the Makarov pistol famous is its excellent ergonomics. That is the Makarov has no locking system, but fires instead on a simple blowback action.
In fact, the only good Makarov we have first-hand experience with is a Russian-made model. We reinstalled the lever, but because of safety reasons, we don’t continue testing guns which lose parts when the guns fire.In October 1999 we tested a Makarov from the now-defunct Miltex Company that met exactly the same fate, albeit after several more rounds — 25 to be exact.Since we have now tried twice to purchase a working Bulgarian Makarov (once new in the box and once out of surplus) and failed each time, we would avoid them. Firing a standard-pressure Federal American Eagle FMJ bullet, the Mak’s safety lever came loose during recoil and fell off. This can be done with the use of a hull.We didn’t collect accuracy or chronograph data because our Bulgarian Makarov threw off the safety lever and dislodged the firing pin on its very first (and last) shot. It does have an external lever that can be used to compress the magazine spring and lower the follower, but we found it to be too sharp to handle without a cap.
The box sticker read, “Century International Arms, Inc. It arrived in a basic cardboard box without owner’s manual. This is quite a different story from our own experience with Maks.We haven’t been able to find out much about the origin of this pistol. This pistol was a prize at the Second Chance Bowling Pin Championship, and it now resides in a glove box somewhere in Louisiana, stoked with Cor-Bon ammunition, which it digests with enthusiasm. Inscription on the slide is the only key to model name or number. Her pistol was made by IMEZ and even has adjustable sights.

The PA-63 is based on the 7.65mm Model 48 pistol, which itself was based on the Walther PP. The offending brass fixed itself against the feed ramp like a weld.FEG, which stands for Fegyver es Gepgyar, has been producing guns since 1900. However we were afforded the satisfaction of clearing some of the most horrendous jams we’ve encountered to date. Try as we might, we never got this pistol to feed a second round on its own. Once the magazine had been coaxed into position and the slide pulled back, a first round was ready to fire.
The FEG PA63 most closely resembles the Walther PPK. This model was designated the M60. The M48 was later offered with an aluminum frame. 380 ACP and was called the “Walam”. The M48 pistol has also been offered in. On the original it was at the rear of the slide, and on the M48 it was over the chamber.
We gave up firing this round after a few two-round strings of fire. Once we loaded a third round into the magazine, they would stick and not come up and feed. In firing our PA63, we experienced several failures to ignite caused by light hits on the primer using all three brands of ammo, the brass-cased Federal American Eagle FMJs, the steel-cased Norinco FMJ fodder, and the Russian-made Barnaul HPs, which also have steel cases.Also, the Barnaul hollow points would not fit properly into the magazine.
However, standing and firing through the double to single action sequence we found it difficult to land an accurate first shot. This is undesirable because you have to put aside your fine motor skills at a crucial moment and favor brute strength instead.The gun will decock for safe hammer-down handling, but the lever tended to stick at a false point that neither decocks the gun nor stops the hammer.Firing ammunition designed for this gun showed it to be very accurate at a combat distance of 10 yards off of a sandbag rest. The DA pull is heavy and stacks badly—resistance builds as the trigger is pulled back, and just when you are concentrating all your energy to overcome the pressure the shot breaks.
Of muzzle energy delivered by a roundnosed-jacketed bullet. From a self-defense perspective, that leaves us with about 200 ft./lbs. However, they are useless because they wouldn’t fit in the magazine. (There is no way to carry this pistol cocked and locked.) In terms of power, the strongest rounds were the Barnaul hollow points.
While a smooth jacketed bullet may kill, it is unlikely to deliver the type of shock necessary to stop an aggressor in the act. This gun delivered an average of 216 ft./lbs of muzzle energy firing the 125-grain Speer Gold Dot Hollowpoint, which is famous for reliable, aggressive expansion. 38 Special revolver costing about the same money.One of our Best Guns of 2001 in the December 2001 issue was the Taurus M85.
Don’t Buy as a defense gun. Both Bulgarian Makarovs we’ve tested expired quickly and in the same manner.FEG PA63 9×18 (9mm Makarov), $239.
