Tokarev Composition

Description

This is a Cold War-era (1952-dated) Russian TT-33 Tokarev pistol. It was introduced in 1933 and became the standard sidearm of the Red Army, replacing the obsolete M1895 Nagant revolver. It's a semi-automatic handgun with a magazine capacity of eight 7.62x25mm Tokarev rounds. It became popular for it's reliability and was produced in great numbers- like with many Soviet weapons, it became copied and used by many countries around the world. The only change in the Russian Tokarev since it's original manufacture is the slide grip: other than this, the design remained unaltered.

*This weapon is deactivated, and rounds are inert and for practise use*

it may sound odd but my favourite thing about this weapon is its near lack of a safety device (half cock is safe enough) easy to ready. The armour penetration and universal reliability shared by most Russian put the little Tula-Tokarev at the top of my list, in other words love it =D, Dobre Pistolet
