Its comin right for me!
I cant believe you didnt get the pair for 200$ a peice deal from looking at your collection.
The safeties were to meet the ATF interpretation of "sporting use" for handguns or something. There is a number list for features imports have to meet in order to fit the sporting use test as I unserstand it. For the Toks suddenly about 2004 or so the ATF said since they have a barrel shorter than blah blah blah, and since the sights are not adjustable target sights...or whatever....the gun could only be importable if it had a manual safety lever installed.
By the way, what is the pencil test? I only know of the pencil test for the CZ52 hammer release lever.
You're right. I'm mixing up my 7.62x25s: the pencil test is for the de-cocker of the cz-52.
I know that you already know that if you half cock the Tokarev, it locks up the trigger and you can't rack the slide. I think that serves as a superior safety to the crudely added import one. With the import safety, I believe you can rack the slide.
I don't have a Tokarev. Now that you have one, please talk me out of getting one or two.
Damn, no I did not know about the half cock slide/trigger lock combination....that is cool to learn!!!You're right. I'm mixing up my 7.62x25s: the pencil test is for the de-cocker of the cz-52.

I got mine from Century and the "good with cracked stock" was about $20 cheaper, but I figured it would be a waste to order a gun for that price and not be able to shoot it sonn thereafter so I went with a "good" Tok.I think its J&G or SOG or one of them, It sounds like your deal is better anyhow,these were 199 if you buy 2 and it was like another 20$ for just one. they had a similar deal on yugo tokarevs too I believe,but I guess they arent C&R are they so you would have to have it transferred?
If I take the safety out, it just leaves a hole and does not affect operation, right?
thats good!! Toks looooook Great!!

Bad thing is though that I got no accessories with this and no extra mag, so I think I got just what I paid for of course.
My total was $212 shipped (second day air). I think it was $199 for the "good" and $13 for the shipping, but as you can see it is in great shape and the bore is damn good. Haven't had a chance to fire it yet though.i got both mine from jg sales in "very good condition" at 199 apiece. shipping was something like 34.99 for both to ship 2 day ups. Decent finish, clean actions, a little cosmoline. the only problem I found was that one gun didn't have as much mag ejecting power as the other.
