It was the grip that let the side down IMHO. The action was good and the pistol worked well enough but the wooden grip seemed like an afterthought. Very uncomfortable too.

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.
I have found the BSA 240 Magnum shoots fairly well using a two hand hold, but the grips and top-heavy feel make it less accurate with a single hand, unsupported hold.
Still like the overall experience though and nice to have something different from the usual Webley pistols I shoot every week.

Yeah, I adapted a new grip for mine.. much more comfortable now...
Always looking for any cheap, interesting, knackered "project" guns. Thanks, JB.
I notice the Inspectors didn’t sign the Certificate
