Big Browns Report post Posted July 22, 2014 I have a Bulgaria Makarov 9mm(atually it's 380) for sale. I have to say this is one of the most accurate hand guns I have ever shot. It's a sweet shooter. Comes with an original holster and cleaning rod. $200 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Big Browns Report post Posted July 22, 2014 Yes it's a 9x18 & it shoots 9mm. I thought it was a 9mm, but later found out it shoots 380. I'm not very familar with the 9x18. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Big Browns Report post Posted July 22, 2014 I'll take a few more pictures when I get home. The slide says 9mm, but the magazine is the same size as 380. I called a few people who know more about them then me. They said the old 9mm is a differnt size than the new 9mm. I really don't know enough about it to explain it. They said to use 380. I did and it shoots great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest akaspecials Report post Posted July 22, 2014 I hate to throw more speculation on the fire w/o seeing the caliber stamp, but could it be "9mm Kurz"? Which is the same as .380 auto. However I can't find any 9mm kurz versions of that pistol.If it is 9x18, .380 is not good to shoot from it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
