Hi fellow Makr's! I'm new to the glock forum and saw there was a Mak sub forum. Nice to see some people appreciate these! I've got an Arsenal AE Mak that's seen more cleaning/oiling and fondling time than range. Picked it up from a friend of mine whose late husband bought it years ago and drawered it. Free is good! Maybe have about 300 rounds at the very most through it. I've got a couple of boxes of S&B 95 FMJs that I've used and it seems to do pretty well. I originally got it with Hornady hollow points, but I didn't know much about them, so they are still laying around.

Welcome.:)

The Makarov is a outstanding pistol.

That Hornady JHP ammo is good stuff but Hornady, for some reason, loaded it about 50fps slow.
A lot of people say that they use it for their defense ammo though.

If you don't reload save your brass and sell it to a reloader for a couple dollars a box and reduce your shooting cost a little.

Thanks for the welcome!

I shoot the Mak so very seldomly - it's shameful! I think it's seen range time once in the last 8 months. It's more of a novelty when I show it off to people. It def gets nice commments though.

Howdy RR.:wavey:

Maks are great pistolas. The word is pretty well out on them now,so they're not as cheap as in the recent past....but even at 250 or less,they're a great buy if in decent shape and built like a brick poophouse.:supergrin:
