New CETME brake
Might have blues
Gonna buy a Makarov, what should I look for?
Baikal ij70
Any particular reason?
Also, good price range?
Just remember its milsurp even if is "new", so treat it like buying a used gun. Inspect the condition of barrel, blued finish, rust on internal parts carefully $250-400
The Russian and east german ones have the best manufacturing quality
But imo polish Radom p64 is fine too especially considering the difference in price as they are still surplused.
Maybe he suggests the Baikal one as they made a .380ACP export model that was imported to the US for a while. So you dont have to mail order ammo.

Why are people like this
Unless it's an svt...
Are you fucking retarded
It’s a chromed (for some reason) VZ 52
Might be a 52/57
I'm not terribly well versed in Czech arms
So yes I am retarded what of it
Plenty of people have made “not an AK” (Czechia included)
Very few have made “Not an SKS”
The vz52 uses an entirely proprietary bolt and gas system
It has nothing to do with the sks minus being later converted to it's caliber
It resembles a gewehr semi in overall format
But the front tilting bolt and concentric gas piston are exclusively czech
It does however have a garand style safety and German inspired sight.
Right so it's a Czech semi-auto rifle that is contemporary with the Garand, G43, and SVT
It has oddly futuristic gas system but yes
The VZ is unique in that it has an incredibly smooth and robust gas system, and being entirely concentric around the barrel, the barrel is the piston guide
As well as zero tilt or rotation
Huh
It’s not really comparable to the SVT or Garand
It’s in an intermediate calibre
