I suggest to rename this page: '''Margolin MCM''' would be more correct. "Baikal" is only a trademark of Izhmekh (and "Vostok" was a previous trademark), while Margolin was the designer of this pistol. We have pages "Tokarev TT-33" or "Makarov PM", not "TOZ TT-33" or "Izhmekh PM", so I think that this page would be better named the same style.

Renaming
I suggest to rename this page: Margolin MCM would be more correct. "Baikal" is only a trademark of Izhmekh (and "Vostok" was a previous trademark), while Margolin was the designer of this pistol. We have pages "Tokarev TT-33" or "Makarov PM", not "TOZ TT-33" or "Izhmekh PM", so I think that this page would be better named the same style. Greg-Z (talk) 12:39, 30 September 2013 (EDT)

- In 1960s-1980s this pistol was exported from USSR under the trademark "Vostok" (East). For example, here is a cover from the manual. The trademark "Baikal" appeared only in mid-1990s (1994 or 1996 according to various sources). And in USSR/Russia this pistol is known simply as "Margolin pistol".
