I am afraid that I sit in the 'ugly but it works camp' hence why I have 2 black stocked rifles. Wooden stocks are all well & good, but for weapons that have to earn their place in the gun safe & are worked hard - practicality comes before looks.

I'd often wondered how good these pistols really were. Now I know, thanks.

I'll verify the accuracy and reliability of the -35M. I have one I use for bullseye too and for the money, can't be topped.

I use my Baikal IZH-35M for NRA Bullseye league shooting. I also have a S&W Mod. 41 and prefer the 35M over it for target shooting. I have an Ultra Dot sight mounted on the 35M and a Docktor on the 41. Men's toys are so fun!

Very good article. I bought mine for $350 slightly used two years ago and love this IZH 35M to death. No problems with it. DJ Precision has parts and some customizing for this handgun. I intend to dress my baby up some!!!!
