    Default Russian Makarov Pistol

    What should I be looking for to identify a Russian-made Makarov pistol from those produced in other com-bloc countries (e.g. Bulgaria, Poland, East Germany)? Are there any unique markings to be found?

    Made in Russia is one way at least on the commercial manufactured ones.
