Default CZ-52...Mak...harsh? Huh...

Wow, now I've heard it all.


I guess I am too used to my old 45 Colt revolver, 357 mags, Thomspon Contender in 35 Rem. and dad's Mod.29 Smith 44.


I don't find ANYTHING in 9x19 or smaller to be harsh at all. I have looked at ads for compensators for 92 Berettas and other 9x19mm pistols and just laughed....what for? Jeez, I could run cases through my Hi-Power and Glock and not be bothered by them at all. Ditto for the Makarov. Yeah, the grip is not as comfortable as a P-08, Glock 17 or Hi-Power, but you can buy 3-5 Maks to one of those mentioned. For the money..I was impressed with the neat little Makarov.


When I think of commie pistols, I think of the crude Nagant revolvers and the T-33....the Maks are quite a step up in fit and finish from these pistols.


The worst part of the CZ-52 is the noise...not the recoil. Yeah, it ain't no 32 Walther, but its not any worse that your average 40 or 45 auto.


The 10" Thompson Contender in 35 Rem. is something I don't want to shoot all day, though! (you ain't seen a muzzle fireball until you've seen this baby in action)
