Where's a good source of 9x18 Makarov Ammo?

I'm looking very seriously at an FEG PA-63 for a carry piece, assuming the judge that decides on such things approves my CCW permit a week from tomorrow, at least to start with. I like the feel of the Walther PP design(the PA-63 is a Walther PP with a Hungarian accent for practical purposes), and apart from its reputation for slide-biting people with large hands it has an excellent service rep; but none of the gun shops around here stock 9x18 Makarov ammo.

I'd be happy if I could get one in 9mm Kurz, because that's a .380 ACP and the gunshops do stock that caliber. There is no point in buying a pistol I can't get ammo for. So where or from what company do all the FEG owners buy their 9x18 Makarov ammunition?

Cyrano your local gun stores can order it or type in at a search engine 9X18 ammo sales or something like that.
It's very plentiful. J&G has it.
If you want some accurant hollow points try a box of Hornady custom 9X18 and Winchester has a good FMJ too.
Good Luck...A.H

EDIT: I carry a CZ 82. 9X18 caliber

Cyrano..my FEG is a .380 ACP but before I knew that, I bought 3 boxes of 9X18 Maks at 2 different gun stores in my area; believe it or not, the maks were about the same price as .380 ammo. I would go with ArkansasHunter and try your local gun stores...that type of ammo appears common in my area, at least.
