Hi Guys,
I'm happy to say that the CSA vz61 combat has recently been approved as a restricted firearm by the RCMP. We have also already received a shipment of them, and they have already started shipping out to dealers.
I think that Calibre did a get job on the opening ad for these, and I knew they were going to attract some attention. I'll be posting some pictures shortly. I had already taken some, but they weren't to my liking.
Here are some brief specs on the vz61.
Calibre: .32 ACP
Barrel length 115 mm
Comes with 3 magazines. 1x 10/5 and 2x 20/5
Nylon mag pouch included
It ships with a black plastic grip, but wooden versions will be able to be purchased as an accessory shortly.
Thanks,
Jon
Will the 9mm Makarov (9x18) ever be available up here?

Not at the moment. The orginal was supposed to be in a .380 auto. Which is why it's listed that way in some of our outdated dealer priclists. The downside with that was the ridiculous plastic straight magazine that had to be used.
In .32 ACP, we could utilize the proper metal curved mags that look about 100 times better.
.380 auto maybe available eventually. But once you see the mags it comes with, I don't think anyone would be impressed.
Thanks,
Jon
To some collectors who will buy this for the sole purpose of looks, the .32 ACP version with the metal mags do look better for sure. But for me, and the guys that will shoot the thing, .380 ammo is more widely available, cost less and is more fun to shoot since it's more powerful. The 9mm Makarov version would be even better, more powerful than the .380 and cheaper than both ACP calibres.
