    I'm a little confused by the descriptions and numbers you have given. would it be possible for you to show us some photos please?

    Pictures of the right hand sides of both pistols and then pics showing the left hand grip frame area of each pistol would make things much clearer

    Wouldnt let us decide what to keep. Which one shoots best? Or do you like shooting the best?
    Which one do you like the looks best? Or makes you most proud?
    Imo, theres more to a gun than its (collectors) value. Choose from the heart.

    The 9/73 should be a SUNCORITE version, not very rare, although I don’t have a good one ��
    The 74 as said is a Transitional, a bit more rare, I have 2 good ones of these dated 74 & 75.
    73 without the Suncorite

    Possibly perfidious.
    Too many guns, or not enough time?

    Now that is excellent advice.

    As a huge Premier fan, I'd be tempted to keep both.

    Currently looking for Baikal Makarov pistols with the following prefixes to the serial number: 98, T01, T09, T21, T22
    Prefer boxed or cased but will consider loose examples too.
