Mine should be arriving today. I did some googling on it yesterday. To my disappointment, I only just realised that it's a non-blowback! A massive face-palm moment! Oh well, it is considered a kind of "must have" for air guns collector (at least that is what I will be telling myself!). Also found this page detailing the history of MP-654K which some of you might find interesting... History of MP-654K

It's the 658K that's blowback, but by all accounts the original 654 is the better gun. The 658 has a funny little stick mag and it's a right faf to take the grips off when replacing the CO2. If you need any parts for your 654 rusmilitary is the place. www.rusmilitary.com/html/airgun_mp654K.htm

658 is probably the same as the Umarex version. That is available for £70 from the same seller. Nah, I want the "real" deal. 😂

But the best blowback version is the Gletcher PM51 with full size drop out magazine and blowback. I have had a few of these real Baikal Maks over the years and they are lovely to hold and strip and feel. But they shoot shite.

No blowback but you can still pull back the top slide and engage the lock back mechanism. The spring on these is really powerful ![](https://i.ibb.co/hY1fytB/Mak-Nickel-3.jpg)

The blowback version (658K) is horrible in my opinion, finish of the frame is dreadful, and it’s a stick mag as has been said. And you have to unscrew the whole grip to put in a Co2 capsule. You have dodged a bullet not getting one to my mind. Mine went straight back to the dealer.

Sounds like a great story Andy. Do share! 🤣 Nah, not even considered the stick mag version. It is £70 but I think I need one of these proper ones.

I'll be honest, there's pretty much nothing I'd like to get my foreskin trapped in.

So share! 🤣 Nah, not even considered the stick mag version. It is £70 but I think I need one of these proper ones. Well. one day I was sitting naked in the garden having a Guinness and had just put the Makarov together again after stripping for cleaning. I was just cocking it back for a function test when next doors Rottweiler ran in to the garden, took one look at my sausage and barked at me while drooling. I jumped up and hid my dangly bits from said dog not realizing I had my Makarov in my hands and I accidently thumbed the slide lock down and the slide sprung forward with such a force and trapped my foreskin in the ejection port. The next thing I was waking up in accident and emergency. And if you believe all that your even dafter than me.
