Tokarev: has anyone else seen this delight?

[Jim McArthur]

Might be a better build, though. Is it made of steel or pot metal?

Magazine will certainly be a lot cheaper

And more readily available, we all hope.

Umarex make one, I believe Solware can get hold of them.

Not sure what they are like though, for me most Umarex guns never deliver as much as I had hoped (But I am an awkward git).

This is the Umarex offering:

It is 6mm and gas, as jassi says.

What I would like is 4.5mm and CO2 and a power rating of 3 joules not 1 joule (as above).

Unfortunately it is all a bit academic at the moment as the piggy bank is empty.

i found a website that stock's gletcher gun's there just slightly modified rebranded gun's that are out there, so im thinking the crosman tt, like alot of people have said about it, it has room for a blowback chamber, but there isnt one, i think these guy's have just added one it seem's like they've put a rifled barrel and drilled out the cartridge's in the dan wesson model's by asg, and if you look at there page they clearly have a tangfoglio witnessl, there just copy's clearly there all rebranded or probably not even that you probably order them and they come with the other logo's on

Maybe, at last, someone is listening to what the customer would like and modifying products accordingly.

Interesting, the Cybergun UZI is also there as is the PT92 and the Revolvers all look like the Winguns.

Hope these become readily available in the UK.

[jassi]

Probably a long wait. As yet, they don't even seem to be readily available the the US.

Hi, for a while a russian company was converting and refinishing genuine tokarev pistols to Co2 like the maks, all steel, not sure if they still make them, they used almost the same mag and firing system as the steel makarov co2, dont think they'd get through into uk through as converted from once real thing.
just a passing bit of info

If this is the pistol you are thinking of, they will not be imported:

Were they converting the cartridge version into CO2, or manufacturing a CO2 version alongside the cartridge version, and from the same materials?

As I understand the UK's laws, the first would always be Section 5, the latter would be unregulated.

Think this is £60 plus postage

but why? baikal's co2 makarov was imported- i have one. so why not this one?

I'm not sure of the precise minutiae of the ruling from the authorities but I think it is because the Baikal Tokarev has been converted from an original cartridge firing firearm into a CO2 pistol while the Baikal Makarov ( I've got one too) is made from new using some parts which also are used on the cartridge firing firearm.

All I know for certain is that when I first saw the Baikal Tokarev on the replica airguns site (www.co2airguns.net/) I emailed Rusmilitary (www.rusmilitary.com/) and asked if they would be stocking that model and they said they could not import it because it was converted from an original firearm.

The Crosman is a dedicated C02 pistol, absolutely brilliant anyway. Why cant we get this in UK ? Guy we got ours from bought them from Poland cheap.

Looks like you won't be able to get it in America either: It seems to have disappeared from Crosman's website:

They now have blowback as well as NBB on the Poland site, one of the guys on UBC just had one delivered (about £85)
