Draco pistol

militant · December 20, 2012, 10:01 AM

I just got a draco pistol in 7.62x39. I love it. It wasn't cheap (to me) but I like guns I don't see everyday. I haven't gotten a chance to fire it yet. I don't expect much in accuracy. How accurate are you with yours?

loose_holster_dan · December 20, 2012, 10:08 AM

they were selling them online for like $400 last year. what are they going for now?

militant · December 20, 2012, 10:36 AM

699.00 put the door at discount guns. I couldn't find any cheaper. That was new in box.

Gunbroker has them for pretty high too. I know people are gonna say they got them for stupid cheap but I'm talking about new in box and real life prices. Here is a link to one and I'll bet it sells quick.

i'm not at all saying you didn't get a deal. the market determines the prices. i was just curious how the market had changed in a couple years.

militant · December 20, 2012, 01:37 PM

I originally went to get a spl 16 but ended up with this. I looked at some data online and it still has around 2000 fps out of the 7 inch barrel , so I guess I got the more powerful of the two. The place I got mine at had sold 10 in two days.

loose_holster_dan · December 20, 2012, 01:40 PM

not surprised. i wanted a rifle caliber in a pistol package as well, and looked at these. ended up with a sig p556 instead.

Does anyone know if the mini draco accessories are comparable with mine.? Mine being the new pap m92 by CIA.

ozarkrecluse · December 22, 2012, 10:03 AM

Not compatible.

militant · December 22, 2012, 10:53 AM

Not even the muzzle brake? If not do you know of any that are?

tahunua001 · December 22, 2012, 09:28 PM

if it was me I would apply for the tax stamp and then put a butt stock onto it to convert it into a short barreled rifle.

Especially not the muzzle brake. M92---26mm. Draco--14mm

To the OPs question---I shoot 2'' groups with mine at 50m relatively easily. I never really shoot it at longer distances than that.

$700? YOU STOLE IT, GB They want $999.99!!! I almost bought one for $750 two months ago but I wanted the M92 PAP Pistol (AK yugo pistol)

I shot @ 25 yards with it decent on target, don't ask for 1 inch groups but it can hold its own.

^ thats not the m92 you bought, thats a different sight picture than m92.

Correct. The picture above is my Draco. Below is my M92 patiently waiting on a stamp...

9mm · December 22, 2012, 11:50 PM

aw, you ruin it! no more pistol

.... SBR = cannot carry in my state. Only pistols

great for hiking, throw it in my backpack or on my shoulder. My M92 is my go to gun now when I go hiking in the moutains.

Budda · December 23, 2012, 12:55 AM

Plouffedaddy, I hope you have a SBR tax stamp for that Draco, now it is no longer a pistol and you just posted proof of ownership/posession of an SBR.....just thought I would give you a heads up.

Thanks. I do. I actually keep a copy of it in the pistol grip.

militant · December 23, 2012, 12:04 PM

I want to put a front grip on it. What are the legalities on that and do the make aftermarket anything for this yet?

Microgunner · December 23, 2012, 12:09 PM

Can't put a vertical fore grip on a pistol without a tax stamp.

Budda · December 23, 2012, 04:21 PM

I was sure that you knew what you were doing....many web ninjas do not, but I just had to check with another fellow gunner...

HawkeyeNRAlifer · January 2, 2013, 12:07 AM

I've wanted one of these for a couple of years now, but every time I'd check with my dealer they where out of stock. And the price, $350 at first, went through the roof. Didn't stumble across the PAP M92 until recently and grabbed one last weekend for $100 more than they were a month ago. Just crazy! Downloaded the BATFE paperwork tonight for the tax stamp to own a SBR.

militant · January 2, 2013, 01:07 AM

They are sold out everywhere right now. I love mine. I just want a new muzzle break.
