Here are some pics after a hour of cleaning grease with a rag. But still needs some more detailed cleaning with some brushes and degreaser.
Bulgarian Makarov in cal. 7.65mm or .32acp with matching magazine.
I bought it from a dealer who was selling whole collection from passed away collector, together about 100 pieces.
As some of you already said, Makarov's dont exist in this caliber. I was speaking with some older gun collector here in Slovenia about this Mak..
During the "Slovenian war of independence" (Ten Day War) in y.1991 a company called Orbis imported few 10 Bulgarian Makarovs and converted them to us more common caliber 7.65mm. This company also produced MGV-176 (MGV-176). This company doesnt exist any more.
This few Maks were given to high ranking officers for their special services. Some of them were also used during this war.
As i was told, Hungarians also suppose to convert some Mak's in 7.65mm but not Bulgarian.
Looks like that magazine is unmodified. 7.65 bullets are stacked in double row.
