Brand: Desert Pubns Official 9Mm Makarov Pistol Manual

first class book very informative

The 9mm Makarov (may KAR' off) pistol is a piece of history, we bought one for target shooting and for the historic value. We got the disassembly manual and also this one, which has lots of great info not only on disassembly and reassembly but also on the parts, the performance and specs, how to use, how to maintain, etc. I believe it's an English translation of the original manual and it is excellent, well done, very useful, and very interesting.

Full facts and everything you need to know in one book.

This short field manual looks like it was copied verbatim from the Soviet one. And, although it's basic and not too detailed, it has everything you really need to know to operate and strip the Mak, how to thoroughly clean it and even some basic ballistics. I love at the end of it , the manual shows some firing positions, as if this gun were meant for anything but close range defensive use! I really like this book, even if I did not have a Mak, just for it's authentic Soviet feel, and the typical Armed Forces style. It's the same all over! Hope you enjoy it as much as I did, Bob M

It met my expectations for a useful tool to explain the history and hoe the gun performs as well as maintaining it in good operational condition.
