I'd thought about it. A Charter arms Pathfinder .22wmr would be a good little pocket revolver. Then I figured why not a .38? They're really no louder and a .38 isn't a kicker.

Yeah, I know of its origins, but he asked about a smaller framed 9mm. I wanted to stick with the eastern block theme. The Tok/Norinco/Navy Arms are a bit long in the barrel to be considered small even though they're thin and somewhat small in the grip.

They seem to have rough finishes, but an EAA Zastava M88 isn't very large. Its 9mm/luger/para/x19 etc.

I thought about adding that, I've seen pretty deep nickle that almost passed for chrome on some older guns.

If theres no real pitting, I'd bet its chrome. Chrome tends to wear better. It also only really flakes if the surface wasn't properly prepped or the gun has really had you you know whats kicked out of it.

Nickle tends to pit more than chrome, plus chrome can be cleaned with triple ought steer wool without leaving scratches. Basically, Chrome can flake, nickle can wear off and pit. Do you have a picture of said pistol?

I think people see them as old relics. They're treated like Tokarevs. Killer guns, powerful rounds, cheap to shoot and remarkably reliable.

Isomack, I had polished the ramp to see if it cured the FTF issue the gun was having, not sure why since it was a Jennings. But I had finished and wanted to see if it worked. The round chambered, I set the safety, layed the gun down in my palm and it just went off. It was junk Federal bulk...

Never dropped one and had it go off, but I've had a chambered round go off by itself in a gun. Sadly for me it was a Jennings J-22, so as it was laying in my hand, it about took the last knuckle of my middle finger off. The safety was on, the trigger was never touched, the rim the cartridge...

Only have one handgun at the moment. But I've had .22 short only revolvers and currently a 7.62x25 Tok.

Box stock 1953 Romanian TT33. I'm too lazy to shoot targets, but its accurate enough to shoot keys off a junk keyboard at 20 yards.

But the recoil spring and everything else worked?

Kind of what I was afraid of. I'll have to check with the company to see if they have a return policy. http://www.gunpartscorp.com/catalog/Detail.aspx?pid=595100B&catid=8694 anyone ever have any dealings with them? The only other one I've found was on gunbroker for near on $80. I swear i...

I have a mid 50s build date T33c, I've finally come across a few 9x19 barrels to stick in it. My question is simply this, do they all use the same exteral diameter/ length barrel? I know the Norinco 213 and the Navy Arms TU-90s are essentially continued production of the original TT series...

Figured I'd post an update. I went out and ran ~75 rounds through it today. Not a single FTF, stovepipe, anything. Its much more accurate than I am with a handgun, but I got a few good groups in. At 25 yards, It grouped about 4" with me shooting one handed and having never shot it before. The...

I'll add that anything Jennings is garbage. Ask my left middle finger.

I'll absolutely get pictures of my first time out with it next weekend. If its not accurate, I'd venture to guess it more me than the gun. I'm a long gun guy myself, so we'll see how my point of aim/target picture ability is these days.

For those of you who suggested looking at the Toks over those pistols listed, I thank you. I have 150 rounds en route to me, along with 100 more for the nagant. I picked this up today at a small shop down the road from me actually: The trigger is actually wonderful, the upright grip is...

If you're planning bunny or maybe squirrel stew, a .38 isn't going to leave you much.

I've been looking at the Toks, I just wish they made a shorter barrel version that shared length with the new M88. Otherwise they're what I want, reliable, cheap, powerful enough, and cheeeeeeeeeeep to shoot. Plus you can convert them to 9mm with just a barrel from what I've read.
