How about one of these?
Seems like they are trying to give them away.

I have one Yugo and it is a blast to shoot. Funny thing is, it is also the one I put on the nightstand when I go to bed.
Never had a problem with it at the range.
I prefer the single stack grip, feels very comfortable.
And I wouldn't want to argue with this guy...

Holy shit, I never realized until now, but that is a Star model B! Not a 1911 like I originally thought.
I like to think of mine like cheap camping fun guns. I stacked up on the surplus ammo and I still have tons. I can toss one of the toks and a few boxes of ammo in a bag when I go anywhere and I don't have to be stingy about letting my friends shoot it. I love the way they feel in my hand too. Its compact, but it feels as comfortable as a full size gun. Ive fired it into soft ground and it left a hole big enough to fit a golf ball in before. The only negative thing I can think of is the poor accuracy. If I had to stash a gun and some ammo somewhere for an emergency that I didn't mind the risk of losing, it would be one of my toks.
I've always thought there would be a good market for some sort of kit to make it more accurate and not really change the gun or its looks too much, like maybe a replacement barrel and some sort of lighter, smoother trigger? That would make the gun perfect.
I thought about trying to get ahold of one of those Zastava Tokarevs.
Does anybody know if the new production ammo is a big difference in accuracy versus the old corrosive surplus ammo that we all bought back when it was dirt cheap?
The Zastava tokarevs are INCREDIBLY accurate ...
They are a blast (literally) to shoot. They are loud and shoot fireballs. Ammo is available and easily reloadable. I've never felt that the grips are awkward/bulky or that it's an uncomfortable pistol to handle. And, a neat part of history.

Well crap. There goes my October budget.
Thanks for the heads up, that looks like a solid deal
I agree, I now have a few hundred reloadable cases and a set of Lee Dies, so I shold not have any Ammo problems in the near future.
My only complaint is the small Grips. With large hands I have a problem with the Hammer beating the hell ot of the web of my hand. I've been wearing a fingerless thin leather shooting glove, but the Hammer is still a bit painfull.
The 9 shot tt's with a bit longer Grip helps.
I do love that loud "Crack" and Fireball. The TT's are definately an attention getter, shame most of the cheap surplus Ammo has dried up.
At the price a Tok shold be on every C&R List.

If we can get a domestic producer, we're in even better shape.
There already is

I'm pretty sure that those are boxed and re-branded. They may be made by PPU.
