All shoot the same. All safetys are added by the importer with the exception of the Yugos, as I believe they are factory installed.

^^^^ This. The Yugos were factory installed. I think that Zastava has a new copy (non-C&R) of the M57 out now that also has a factory-installed safety.

Ya know, I opened this thread to learn a little something and you azzhats ended up convincing me to buy one. dammit....i was doing so well too....
Ordered a Romanian one. Intended to get it from Wideners but their site kept erroring out so bought it at Classic instead for a few pennies more. Hopefully it will be a good one :0/

C-mon... get a polish one too! They look so nice next to one another!
Besides, you've got 2 hands......

Its comin right for me!
If you have a Romy you now have to get a Yugo so you can have one of each grip length. I love my Romy because its so small and slim and feels great in my hands but I also love my Yugo because nothing feels better than a single stack that fits a grown mans hand. Plus youre gonna buy ammo in bulk and take a friend to shoot it so you might as well have one for each of you and this way youll have the widest variety.
I really want a 9mm Tokarev next for myself. Maybe a chrome plated one?

Ive spent less on my Tokarevs than most single inexpensive parts Ive bought to put on my other guns like stocks, scopes, or even just a trip to wal mart for ammo. Great gun for the price.

Sled: I looked for a Polish one and everyone was out of em.
(waits for sled to produce a link to one I missed)
and yeah, a Yugo. I thought about ordering one of those last night too for those very reasons, but stopped myself.
Thought about it again today, but then Engage called me to tell me my AR build is done and seeing how I have to pay them too! Tick tock, here comes October.....
who has surplus ammo. All the biggies seem to be out. I dont need 500 rounds...well not yet

I got both a Romanian and a Yugo from Classic. The Romanian has a finish like a new gun. The Yugo has a longer grip and is the gun I take to the range.

I don't have a lead on a polish one right now. I'll keep an eye out.

Does anybody know if the chinese 9mm toks are still easy to find? Are they all called Norinco 213's? Also I understood the quality was alot lower on them. Are they still a reasonable shooter/beater gun if you just want something to have a little fun with?
I considered converting one of mine to 9mm but for the price Id probably just buy a new one. I wish someone made a reasonable standard kit to do that for each model, with ammo drying up they would make a killing. Id be faster to buy one of it came complete with everything you needed from a more well known manufacturer.
