[QUOTE="criticalbass, post: 2040523, member: 711"] I stop in there now and then for a laugh. They have a couple of grossly overpriced Makarov IJ-70 pistols, one in .380 and the other in 9x18. These are the ones with the "target" sights which were put on to make them more easily importable back in the 90s. One of their employees told me, no kidding, that those sights had been installed by their gunsmith to make them "legal." I started laughing, and just left the store. I don't know everything about Makarovs, but I know a lot about them, and this is the silliest thing I have ever heard anyone say on the subject. Mikebanks, I see you have been on the forum for a while, but have made only a few posts. You may have been an active lurker, which is not a bad thing, but if you haven't seen the numerous posts relating to Gunworld, do some searching and read enouh to get an idea of most opinions of that place. I just looked up their comments on Yahoo, and though they have a four star rating, all the five star inputs appear to have been written by the same person, and all the other ratings are one star, with most saying they wish you could give lower ratings. Most obvious case of rating manipulation I have ever seen. Positives are short and general, negs are highly detailed and long. [/QUOTE]
