The Replica Soviet Makarov Pistol is a finely crafted non-firing reproduction of the standard-issue sidearm of the Soviet Union and Eastern Bloc nations during the Cold War.

Historical Background:

Designed in the late 1940s by Nikolay Makarov, the Makarov PM was adopted as the official service pistol of the Soviet Union in 1951. It was developed to replace the older TT-33 and quickly became known for its reliability, simplicity, and ease of use. Chambered in 9x18mm Makarov, it was used extensively by Soviet military officers, KGB agents, and law enforcement throughout the Cold War.

The Makarov remained in service across the Eastern Bloc for decades and continues to be used in some military and police forces today. Its compact design and dependability made it a favored choice for both military personnel and civilians alike.
