The 3rd Tokarev

Nice gun - I have a 1950 Russian and a 1964 Chinese. Shoot them occasionally. They are slender, well made, easy to carry, accurate and powerful - a perfect example that a gun can be inexpensive yet not cheap. I reload for them using .30 carbine bullets.

Yes, it's very well made.

Expensive guns are like gold and platinum, valuable but sitting in safe most of time. Inexpensive guns are silver, fitting everyday's playing.

Excellent shape, very cool find!

I have a M57 from the early sixties but I love it (I'd like to get an earlier Russian one at some point). Does very well at the range for an inexpensive yet solid pistol!!
