Makarovs were deliberately designed to drop off in energy and velocity after short range. Rounds can drop after 40 feet. This was deliberate because the soviets didn't want to see a lot of collateral damage having had too much from the Tokarevs and their high velocity during city fighting in WW2. They asked Makarov to tweak his design because they anticipated heavy urban combat, as it turned out they were right. It is an outstanding home and personal defence pistol, nonetheless very accurate!

i dont know why the russians used it as a service pistol,but that would be one hell of a carry pistol,my dad has a Hungarian FEG PA-63 (im not old enough to own weapons yet) ive shot it,it is a fun little gun to shoot however because its so small after a few mags it starts to sting,i must say,for $200,its one of the best surplus pistols available,very helpful vid
