A question was posed about the safeties on TT-33, the original safety was the half cock, which locked the trigger and slide to undo the safety you have to fully cock the hammer
Of the two import safeties I have seen was the Yugo sear safety, which blocks the sear from moving, not the hammer or hammer sear engagement, and the trigger bump knob, the rommy/polish import safety. I have to say, I really don't like a little lever that engages a weld (look at it, it really is just a nasty weld blob)
Safe is half cock, it ensures the gun is unloaded, and if you keep the gun loaded and half cock you are two things, braver than me, and well engaging in a pointless, dangerous activity.
Other variants have a actual manual safety, such as the Zastava (yugo, now Serb) commercial variant, as well as the Norinco 213, and the Tokegypt. I have the M88 zastava, and I haven't taken the safety apart, but do know that in engages something in the trigger group, and that the trigger group doesn't have a half cock.
Now this is neither an old thread, or to the best of my knowledge a retread of a answered thread.
Please add you knowledge of the Tok here. can you explain the differences between the different commercial and military models, explain the different commercial safeties,
And can anybody give something definitive about the hard/binding trigger some people seem to experience on the Yugo, is it a dirty trigger group or the safety binding up?
