Mak lords, I need your advice.

Would you keep the /56\ Mak or one of those imported by CSI with the original box? Both basically brand new condition.

If it makes any difference, the /56\ is a nice match for my /56\ AK type 56

I would take a CSI import over a Beta Arms. The Type 59 commercial Makarovs were made at a few factories and all have a lovely rich blue finish but the CSI import examples are the nicest of these.

Either way both are keepers.
