Anyone know anything about this handgun?

Hungarian PA63 9x18 Mak Pistol

I'm thinking of picking one up for a "car" gun.

If it is from Hungary, it's got to be good..:D
Actually, I am in the same position...Noticed that Aims Surplus has a bunch for $139, Walther PP styling, etc...Looks like a good BUG for car or jacket...
Hopefully, some info might surface from someone who owns one...

First off, it is not a Makarov. It is a FEG-made copy of an H model of the Walther PP.
With the light alloy frame, it has quite a nasty bite when firing 9x18.
The trigger pull is awful - eastern block military.

That being said, with a heavier recoil spring, lighter mainspring, and some trigger polishing, it can deliver reasonable action response.

After adjustments, etc., I found the performance acceptable for short periods. It was reasonably accurate. Just do not plan on long period range sessions with it, unless you have extremely robust hands.
