That is a fair price on one today, a few years ago they were cheaper, but today that is fair.

Also it is not much smaller than a Makarov PM, a little thinner, but pretty much just as tall and just as long while holding less rounds and having a much heavier trigger.

I got mine for 189+ at the funshow a few weeks ago. Ended up being just under $202 out the door. Aim had the best deal.on them but they dried up over the last couple months. that is actually less than JG when you factor in shipping and then you have to remember the transfer fee, which is from 20-35 from most shops round here.

COOL! thanks guys,,

i live around the seattle area and everything here seems inflated at times, due to what is perceived to be a bunch of people with mega bucks wandering around.

I remember a few years ago, when they were first dumped onto the U.S. market, they could be had for $124.00 +shipping/fees/tax. I passed on them the first time I saw them (at that price) but picked up one recently for ~$200 just to compliment my Makarov collection.

IIRC-the cheaper P64s that came in a few years ago sported a painted finish and some reports were that it was applied by the exporter to hide the worn bluing underneath. I am not sure if that was true or not.
