Yugoslavian M57 Tokarev hammer group quirk!

Check out this sight alignment...

The top of the barrel at the muzzle is .175" below the top plane of the slide...The barrel hood [at breech] is .040" below the top plane of the slide...and the rear sight is .280" above the top plane of the slide...

That's some locking lug engagement!!!

I also measured the trigger pull with my spring gage...It was a bit over 9 #...

Excellent work! Before you know you'll have it functioning better than the Soviets ever had!

Thank you for the info on the magazine disconnect. Next chance I get I will knock that out of there on mine!
