The Tokarev is pretty much a relic of the cold war, but for all the right reasons, the Tokarev and it's many variants are becoming a pretty hot item.
The price is right, these weapons were very heavily manufactured by armories all over Europe and Asia they've been used in just about every conflict since WWII.
So let's assume you have a Tokarev and have read all the articles on Wikipedia, seen the PDF put out by Century Arms and you want to discuss an issue that you've never mentioned anywhere else. This would be a good place, I have found a few other folks who are always eager to share info and have a pretty good knowledge based on personal experience.
If you have anything to ask or contribute this is the place. For now, discussion will primarily be about the TTC Romanian in 7.62x25
A good place to start off is with the safety switch! The one that was added to make the Tokarev exportable to the U.S.
You will probably want to leave the Safety -IN- when you field strip your TTC -if you take it out, make sure you keep track of the little "location" insert pin.

I've noticed a couple of pictorials on field stripping the TTC with added safety, I notice in those pictorials they leave the safety IN.
ReplyDeleteWell, if you take it out, be prepared for a little surprise and don't lose track of the tiny pin that will come tumbling out. It's tricky to put that thing back into place too.
