Makarov PM

The Makarov is a very common pistol, once standard issue for the Soviet and Russian Military. In short, it's a pistol-sized AK-47 in terms of simplicity and reliability. It is easy to find and generally inexpensive, around US$200. The 9x18 round delivers power between the .380 ACP and 9x19mm Luger. Its reliability and small size make it popular for concealed carry. Some safety issues have been raised about the free floating firing pin, but even California allows this weapon. Russian Makarovs are even C&R eligible. This pistol continues to be popular throughout the world.
