Baikal IZH-94 MP
Looking for first hand opinions based on actual experience on the quality of the Baikal IZH-94 MP combo gun, specifically the 410x3/22LR version.

My kid has one in 20ga/22wmr. It seems to work well enough but the trigger isn’t great.

I switched from the 410/22 and I now have the 22 LR 20 gauge. Very good open sites, takes a scope or red dot well. Decently made. I would prefer if the barrels were shorter and the gun a little lighter but you will never wear it out. I put a couple of extra coats of Tru-oil on the stock and it looks real good now. With the interchangeable chokes you can shoot lead, steel or slugs so it is a viable deer, grouse small game combo gun. The 20 gauge ammo is $7 a box rather than $20 for 410. It will group 3 slugs into 2.5" at 100 yards.

That's awesome. Some dedicated slug guns wouldn't shoot that consistently.

Dean2, thanks for the reply.
It appears that you have the IZH-94 "Sever" model based on 22LR 20 gauge. I think I might go with that model. The picture on the Baikal Canada website looks like the "Sever" has a longer sight radius than the IZH-94 MP model. The info on the website states twin triggers for the "Sever" but the picture sure looks like a single trigger. What does yours have, twin triggers or single trigger. Now all I have to do is find a dealer who stocks the Baikal line.

Mine is dual trigger but have seen one with a single trigger with a barrel selector. Mine has the top opening lever. Baikal Canada will ship the gun direct, it is how I bought mine. Just phone them to order it. If you can find a used one that works but I never found a dealer that sold them.
With the new sanctions on Russia, if you want one better order it quick, I doubt they will be able to import these any more one the sanctions are fully in place.

I've had mine (94-MP in .22WMR/.410) for about 3-yrs, ordered it from Gagnon Sports, Oshawa, Ontario. A nice gun to carry, not a great trigger and don't care for the open sights so I added a Browning red dot prism sight. All nice but with the .22 Mag sighted in @ 25-yrds the .410 shot pattern mass is about 5" low with full choke. All that to say I love that prism sight for the .22Mag on small game; .410 barrel for sale!!!

Well since my last post about my Baikal 94-MP .22Mag/.410, I've decided that since I will never use the .410 barrel it's time to sell or trade and get a good quality .22WMR, so up she goes.
