Description

First designed in the 1950s by Russian Nikolai Federovich Makarov, the Makarov is a semi-automatic pistol that was adopted by the Russian military in 1951. Due to its simplicity, affordability, ease of use and stopping power, it remained a standard military weapon till 1991. Today, Makarovs can still be found in Russia, China and Bulgaria, and they continue to be a go-to gun of choice on the Hollywood big screen by appearing in movies like “The Hunt For Red October,” “Die Hard With a Vengeance,” “Lethal Weapon IV” and multiple James Bond titles. Since they’re no longer in production, Makarovs that were originally manufactured in Russia and China are the most sought after by collectors.
