son of sam 9 Posted February 14, 2017 I want to use my PA63 for carry (Outside of PRNJ) and need some suggestions for SD ammo in the Mak. FMJ is available anyplace but the SD stuff is a little hard to come by. 9x18 in comparable guns with comparable ammo has slight advantage over 380acp. But its my choice because I like the PA63/Walther PP/ Makarov platform. IMO its perfect size and in the case of the alloy frame PA its lightweight and accurate. 7 rounds doesnt bother me. Even in a GF situation I feel thats enough to get to safety. Also Euro police have used the round and platform for decades with success. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Newtonian 453 Posted February 15, 2017 Which holster do you plan on using? I have a cZ82 and an E. German Mak with the original holsters, which are probably ok for open carry but look kind of silly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I havent found a holster yet. As of now I plan to carry in the small of my back with some kind of IWB. Open to suggestions. I like this also. But, somehow not very practical. lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Krdshrk 3,877 Posted February 15, 2017 If it was a regular Mak I'd say get an Aliengear, but the FEG PA-63 is tough to find holsters for... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
