I like mine. Light and accurate, it's a cool little pistol. Usually gets some interesting looks and comments at the range when I take it.
I had one many years ago. It was in a wooden box compete with extra sights, parts etc.Wish I had kept it.
They were designed for competition & with the right ammo, mine shot far better than I was capable of. A really nice gun.
Also, built to last.

Same here. Great little gun, and very accurate. Only thing I found fault with was it was too light for my liking.
Never owned one but I shot one a friend had many years ago. It was a Vostock in the wood case with accoutrements. It shot extremely well.
NAA.
Had one years ago. Dandy entry level pistol. Wasn't terribly fussy about the ammo it would shoot either. Mind you, it had had some work done to it by the guy I got it from. Trigger job and barrel weight. It had a palm rest too. Forget if it was factory or if the guy made it.
Mine shoots very well and is not very fussy about ammo. Sights are well designed and fully adjustable front and rear. The rear sight attaches to the frame rather than the slide via a "bridge"
Mine came supplied with spare parts, springs etc. A nice touch was the extra front sight blades of different sizes along with different rear sight leaves.

Excellent little target pistols. Sure not "competitive" at the highest international events, but good enough to get you on the road to being one of the competitors at said events!
Also, for useless trivia: In Star Wars, (Episode IV: A new hope, if you want to get super geeky about it) Princess Leia's pistol she uses to take a pot-shot at one of the stormtroopers before she is captured, the prop was based on a Margolin.
