North East OK Blown Up Makarov = Sorry, it is gone.

[NomDeBoom]

Ow.

Like I said, other than the barrel being bulged, everything else seems OK.

What would be helpful is to start soaking the barrel/pin/frame "affected area" asap in your bestest nut buster oil. That'd give the buyer a head start on removal of the "offending member". Lotsa info on the interwebs re barrel swaps on Masks; and most makes are fairly comparable. Like Frank sez; proper tools are pretty handy. Or just send it off to some alley in Afghanistan...those guys can make any type of gun parts out of old hummus cans and leftover Invader Eqpt.
They might even have an old ruski armorer's chest in uncle Mustafa's barn.

I think I have brand new chrome lined barrels. I had an ad up a couple of years ago. A gunsmith out of PA bought a couple. He is now a member here. I'll try to find his handle if that would be helpful.

This is I believe a Bulgarian Makarov in 9mm Makarov. It was blown up due to an obstruction in the barrel (never loan firearms to idiots). I don't know if it can be repaired but it comes with two magazines, the better Makarov grips. rubber grip sleeve, cleaning rod and original box, so it has some spare parts value.

Hello Frank, I’m new to the forum as a friend of mine showed me, I cannot find where to private message you but feel free to private message me. Thank you

I replaced a barrel on an FEG clone a few years ago and did not need a special press.

Lots of options, especially when Maks were imported a few pres selections ago (cheap ammo too). People changed cals, lengths, alloys....on purpose.... sure you know that anyway.....good deal on a nice pistol. Enjoy.

I have one in .380 and am somewhat familiar, but if I can get the slide off, I can replace the barrel. Requires a special press but its doable. Just making everything else isl good before considering it.

If you are into working on guns, I have an H&R model 999, pre-war in very good condition EXCEPT the cylinder lock is either broken or bent so that it will not reliably hold alignment with the barrel. You can shoot it if you are very careful, but obviously this is not ideal. In working condition, these sell for between $500 to $ 1,000, I have no notion of what it would be worth in this condition. Let me know if you are interested.

I think I may still have one of the barrels left if the buyer needs it but I’d have to dig.
