46M available from Pyramid

 For the IZH-46M, the first two numbers in the serial number are the year of manufacturer. The “dog leg” charging arm started in 2013.

Thanks Nick,

My new style cocking lever 46M has a serial number starting with 18.  That is interesting, as I bought it at the end of December 2018, from Krale.

Mine does not have "Izhmash" anywhere on it.  The maker is etched as "Baikal".

Yes, Thank You Nick!!

I was unaware of the dating code.

I had a 2018 from Krale also, and a 2014, both had the new charging levers. The owners manuals have the serial numbers and specific dates of mfg also. Believe I have seen 2013 models with both types of levers. Interesting that
Air Venturi (Alfa Precision) provides no owners manual or date of mfg.

Would like to know what is going on with the AV vs Baikal IZH models. Almost want to buy another from Krale just to see if the date of manufacture is current and what the barrel looks like. Could it be that they are being made by both Baikal and Alfa Precision?

My IZZY came via EAA Corp.
The serial # is 014xxxxx B
Does that mean 2001?
If so..well preserved.

Not related but a special post for Stinger..
He was asking what Steve was doing these days..

Frank, yes 2001. Do you have the owners manual that came with the pistol?

Mine is # 0546xxxx B. Eight numerical digits. I know that I bought it in 2005, so I would say yes, yours is a 2001 model.

 

Nick, you beat me to it while I was posting.

I have a manual and parts.

Those stocks look very good , Dennis.

I would change out the rear sight blade for one with an aperture, because it is too close to your face.  Of course, you could add a dot or scope...

I wonder what the stocks for the 46M cost?  Ditto for the Croman PRod.

Interesting that your manual has Baikal on it, Frank.  Just like mine.

[Stinger177]

This is mine from 2005. It came with a separate slip of documentation showing the serial number and date of manufacturing.

I do not think this manual is for my pistol.
I have had three and the number inside the manual does not match the number on my pistol.
Too, the date the manual was signed was in 2014..

If you watch that video, I think somewhere in there toward the beginning Andi tries to get Thomas to state a price.

Thanks Gents, 

325 Euros is a whole DAR, so the $90 (possible) option would be more appealing.  Actually, I would be happy with a functional stock cut out of plywood.  A perfect project; if only I could focus on one thing and finish it...

Who is Steve?

I didn't think to try to order one to find the price - DUH!!

I think I'd actually rather have one in Walnut.
