So, I think a nice birthday present to myself is in order. I really like the Tokarev's on classic arms site and the price sure is right. I also like the idea of a smaller caliber round traveling at high velocity over something like .40 or .45. Plus old guns are just plain cool. I'd take something with some history behind it then a modern pistol any day.

 

I've never even seen one of these in person though and im just wondering if there's anything i should or shouldn't expect from one? mainly accuracy.

 

If anyone has one and wouldn't mind letting me put a few rounds though that would be totally awesome as well

 

 

Thanks,

Someone here is selling one - check the marketplace.

I have a CZ-52. I replaced the firing pin with Harrington competition one, http://harringtonproducts.com/firing-pins/cz-52-2/ and added a CZ-52 Extended slide release http://www.gunpartswarehouse.com/cz52.htm and bought a couple mags. Now it's a reliable, fun to shoot handgun and I'm "all in" about $350.00. It's not something I would trust my life like my HK, but for what it is and what it cost, I'm good with it, now. It took a while.

Aren't they cheap with plentiful cheap ammunition?

 

Plus, you can buy a Mosin and have to two together to be a total commie fighter!

This guy^ knows whats up haha

 

 

thanks for the info guys... ill check the marketplace again but i did search and came across nothing for sale

 

EDIT: found the on for sale here. For the price i think i would prefer a romanian version at the moment but ill have to do some more research on it.

 

Also, are FTF transfers of handguns possible? This would be my first non-inherited handgun.

 

Thanks

I have one, you are welcome to shoot it at somerset county fish & game in bridgewater. They are super awesome. Im able to shoot small groups with it at 25 yards, and I shoot steel with it at 100 yards.

Want something cheaper?

Nagant revolver... though I heard buying ammo is a PITA...

Ammo is dirt cheap, it's a fun pistol to shoot, and they look cool as hell! What's not to like about it!

 

I will say that I don't find them very comfortable, but that's no biggie.

sweet man, I sure appreciate the offer. Hopefully I can find some time to come up and give it a whirl. Do you know off hand what they charge for a non-member to shoot? I'll be honest and say I've never shot at a range before just on my own property.

 

 

The nagant revolver is cool, my LGS has one for $150. I just dont like how it feels. kinda weird, but then again i am "used" to my s&w.

If you and Glenn don't get together by Thanksgiving - send me a PM as we are probably going to be heading to "the Cape" for Thanksgiving.

Sounds good

I have a Yugo M57, which is a Tokarev that holds 2 more rounds. You can shoot mine whenever you want. I'm in Florida till Monday, but after that we can set something up. Also, I shoot at a range right off of 347 that's like 2 minutes south of the Dorchester Wawa. Shoot me a PM and we can set somethin up.

I'm selling the Yugo Tok in the classifieds. You're welcome to come to SCFGPA and shoot it before buying(just pay for the box of ammo if you choose not to buy). I can guest you in for free. Shoot me a PM if you're interested and we'll get together.

Classic Arms has it: My link

Wideners has it too http://www.wideners.com/itemdetail.cfm?item_id=100000375&dir=18|829|843

I know Classic Arms is saying this is safe ammo, but you need to watch Bulgarian surplus 7.62x25, there have been pressure issues with some of the stuff that came out of there in the past.

 

This stuff must have come in recently because SOG has the same ammo as well.

 

As for a Tok, buy it, they are great guns for the $200 you will spend.

The ammo can be found - however it is not as cheap as it was previously.

 

My last purchase was a soldered shut spam can and it was about $89 as I recall. I see that these same size cans are now going for $120 plus. Another price increase or two and I will end up reloading...

There is also a Chinese version that is in 9mm...Looks exactly the same as the x25 version.

the 7.62 round is half the appeal,... for me anyway

Ruger P95, you'll thank me later.

Thats like apples and oranges. P95s arent historic nor do they shoot 7.62x25

 

Anyways, SCF&G is free to guest in. Let me know when you want to shoot.

Your not coming to OB?

im sure the p95 is a fine gun...but its not what im looking for

I thought is was a cost thing and you wanted a semi auto for cheap. Never mind me

Cheap is great dont get me wrong, but cool is better. Fun is even better then that. So if i can find all that rolled into one even better. So at least from my standpoint here I think the tok is all that.

 

Of course im going off pure speculation...having never seen or fired one

2 spam cans shot thru mine in the last year 2 bad rounds the ammo did get more costly
