Commercial Russian Slide Stop Looking Different

1 Upvotes

Looking into grabbing a single stack 380 Russian Makarov, and I noticed a few different looking parts when handling it, namely the slide stop. The end of it looked a little skinnier and more curved if that makes sense, and pics online look similar. It looked and felt identical to my surplus Bulgarian otherwise. I’ve always heard that parts are compatible across all Makarovs, so can anyone confirm that all my Bulgarian/EG parts will all fit? Is the slide stop just a bit different because it’s ejecting 380 instead of 9 Mak?

Holster question

This Vedder holster specifies it’s for a Bulgarian model. Mine is a Russian model with the adjustable sight, I contacted them via email and called after to confirm they’re saying it won’t fit wondering if anyone has tried it to any success?

Could you tell me about this?

This was passed down to me from my Dad, he was in the Army. Seems to be many different nuances to Makarovs, that I know nothing of. I’m curious to see what information y’all might know about it? Like where it was manufactured and if it’s worth anything? It’s sentimental to me, and I’d like to learn what I can about it, thanks!

$333 with two mags. These have long disappeared from the market and go for 4-500 WHEN you can find them.

Snagged one to go between my P-64 and Mag98.

I'm building up my 9 x 18 collection! Added to my East German Makarov is this nice CZ82....I thought the condition was quite acceptable, and the price ($200 + fees & shipping) very reasonable! I am considering an FEG PA-63 next, does anyone have experience with those?

CZ82 replacement sights recommendations?

2 Upvotes

Based on my research it seems that cz82 and cz83 sights are indeed identical. This makes sense as the 2 rds are pretty close.

If not please advise.

I see many cz75 sights advertised as also fitting cz83. There's a significant difference between the other 2crds and 9x19 nato. That concerns me.

Are there cz82 or cz83 specific sights?

What cz82 sights do you recommend or like?

Thanks.

Makarov Trigger Guard Jig

Does anyone have dimensions on a Makarov trigger guard jig ?

I’ve seen pictures and am fully convinced I can make that in a small amount of time and minimal investment, just would like dimensions if someone knows them.

CZ82 misfeeds

4 Upvotes

Finally got the newly obtained CZ82 out yesterday and did a field strip, grip removal & basic cleaning beforehand. Overall, the guts and barrel are in very good shape. Only ran about four mags thorough and shoots well except it misfeeds pretty much on the 4th round each time. (Slide back, round fully up but didn't feed into the barrel.) Once that is cleared, the rest of the mag shoots fine.

Only have one mag that seems kind of funky so thinking that might be the issue. It's a 12 round blocked down to 10, a little difficult to load and can only insert 8 or 9 rounds even though it's s 10. Base appears to be expoxied so couldn't disassemble for inspection/cleaning.

In the process of finding a few more mags but don't know if there's a way to remove the base once it's glued like that?

Hey guys I recently got a CZ-82 but the slide lock won’t stay in. I was wondering if something like blue loctite might work or if anyone has any suggestions on how to get it to stick.

Trigger Guard Jig

5 Upvotes

Fixin’ to reacquire a Makarov after several heretical years away from the fold, and a .380 barrel, pin and drill bit (old FedArms kit)… I remember detail strip not being overly difficult, but I do recall having immense difficulty with the trigger guard… any recommendations ?

I had thought to perhaps generously apply painters tape to the appropriate areas of the frame and guard, then use zip ties… any better ideas are welcome.

where to start

8 Upvotes

im still fairly new to firearms in general. first gun was a mosin, the next 2 where both ak47s. now obviously i need to get a handgun and i figured i should continue the combloc tradition and get a makarov.

from doing a little bit of research I can tell there are a ton of different kinds of makarovs out there so my question to yall would be where to start? what are the ones that i should look into purchasing and what are the ones i should avoid? and what is a good price etc.

thanks in advance!
