Are there 2 different model Makarovs? I saw a picture of a 10 rnd one today. I thought there was only an 8 rnd. Which is harder to find, and is one better than the other?

Thanks
 
I have seen some 10 round Makaron magazines advertised from time to time in SHOTGUN NEWS, but I don't think they were original military equipment.
 
Yes there is a Russian 10rd model. I know very little about it but as I have read there are more problems with it than the standard models.
 
Tom B,

The ONLY problem with the 10rd model is with cheap after market Hi Cap magazines! If you stick to the OEM mags, there is absolutely nothing that is less reliable or less desirable about the Hi Cap Russian. If you don't know what an OEM Hi Cap mag looks like, go to http://www.makarovinfo.com and click on the "Holtsters Mags & Grips" button.

I own a Russian Hi Cap as well a couple of EGs, Chinese, Bulgarians, and regular old 8-round Russians. They are ALL rock solid, reliable and accurate little pistols. I'd trust my life to any of them!
