.380 vs 9x18 MAK

[Vols1976]

I would love to have a Mak. What do these run price wise? I was fondling one at Pawn Shop and dude was asking $380 for it which seemed about $150 to high.

Depends on the country. East Germans are usually higher quality with nicer fit and finish. They usually run from $300-500 depending on serial, what it comes with, condition, etc.

The Russian commercial models are usually the cheapest and run around $200-300 depending on condition and what it comes with.

Then there's some other countries in between those extremes.

http://makarov.com/ has a bunch of good info for identifying the different ones.
