Áno je to ono. Zohnal som jednu krab. - 50ks. S tou zbraňou som voľakedy porážal prasa ( veom nemal by som ) a klasický ogivál sa zastavil na vnútornej strane lebky. Wolf išiel až na 20cm do krčnej chrbtice, pričom po celej jej dĺžke demoloval krčné stavce. Porážací účinok - neporovnateľný.
Pri streľbe na papier bolo počuť trošku väčšiu ranu, v terči taká istá diera, každý tretí výstrel zásek - zbarň CZ, ale to som už písal. V PM to vraj funguje na 100%.
9 mm Makarov
Mne to je jasne. Ale toto je debata makarov pm ... sekcia balistika je inde, ale budis ... Tak rozoberajme naboj 9mm makarov a nie kade, tade a porovnania s .22LR a podobne.
Ja si myslim, ze 9mm makarov je rovnako vykonny a stale dobry naboj, ako 9mm luger o com svedcia aj plechy na KEU v BA a priebojnost v porovnani 9x18 a 9x19, ktore skoncili rovnako. Samozrejme, ze vacsina z nas nebude strielat na plech, ale na osobu / tkanivo a cez to prejde aj .22LR a ked vieme KAM, tak postaci aj to, ale to som uz mimo temy

Vyskúšal som :
maďarské makarovy- dvakrát mi uviazla strela v hlavni, podľa mňa nie sú dobré ani na papierový terč
považské strojárne- na strelnicu dobré, len väčší rozptyl, záleží podľa zbrane, popre zhadzujú dosť ťažko, proti živej sile myslím bohate stačia v zmysle vojdú ale už nemajú dosť energie aby vyšli von
wolf - iná prachová náplň, tvar strely vhodnejší na streľbu na živý terč, odovzdá viac energie
Niekde na nete som našiel ešte ďalších výrobcov, myslím že aj v Amerike, ktorí v tejto raži vyrábajú aj expanzívne strelivo.
Čo sa týka pištole PM, mal som v rukách jeden . Bol dosť nahrubo opracovaný, až som sa divil, že to vôbec dokáže strieľať bez zádržky, ale asi to má silnú pružinu a veľkú vôľu. Rozobraté som to nevidel, tak neviem, alebo bol taký len ten jeden kus?

Ak sa mozem pridat do debaty,tak moj nazor na naboje byvalych Povazskych strojarni boli najsilnejsie.Mal som klasiky celoplaste.Stare vychodonemecke ako bolo pisane boli super len dymili ako perkusak,dalej Barnauly sa my zdali najpresnejsie,SB a ZVS-Holdibg Dubnica hrozne cajicky 
Kamarat mi dokonca prebijal Makarovi a aj tie slapali.Ozaj chlapi na zaver kde sa da teraz kupit Makarov za dobru cenu 
stary rusky 
lebo to je masinka ku ktorej sa este vratim

Ahojte, všetci,
vidím, že o strelive 9 mm Makarov sa tu nepísalo už 9 rokov.
Ja som si však minulého roku obstaral ruskú PM a mám z nej radosť. Zistil som ale aj to, že strelivo je drahšie a nie tak ľahko dostupné. Chcel by som si zaobstarať väčšie množstvo munície (do 500 ks). Jediný zdroj, čo však mám, sú štandardné obchody, kde je cena okolo 0,32 EUR za kus.
Robia sa nejaké spoločné veľké nákupy? Alebo viete poradiť, kde by sa to dalo nakúpiť z vojenských veľkoskladov, kde by to mohlo byť lacnejšie?
Ďakujem pekne
