Picked up a nice little Makarov 9x18 for $125. Shoots real good too. Came with a set of extra thumbrest grips. I see it has a hinged trigger guard like a CZ 380, but the slide doesn't come off like the CZ. How do I get it apart to clean it? Oh, Hornady makes some nice hollow points in 9x18 Mak. that open up real nice on impact with fairly light material.

    Thanks Jgreen, it is like the CZ 380. Just takes a little more force to get it apart. I really enjoyed shooting this gun today. The frame mounted barrel makes for a good shooter. At the price of less than $150 I think I'll grab up a dozen or so for birthday gifts and such.

    bdj: Mine is August 6th. Don't go overboard or anything; I don't need a lanyard, but I prefer the red military grips. Thanks.

    Tools: Good thinkin'. bdj can jump out of the cake and give us a hug. Then we can unwrap our Makarovs and blow up his Amana side-by-side.

    It had been sitting in the local shop for many months and I felt sorry for it. I asked the owner what he would take to get it gone and he said $125 no tax, out the door. I'm going to ask him if he can get me some more of them for that price.
