Stay Safe !
The *Timbs/Tokarev* works in the Soviet TT-33 *Tokarev* pistol, too, the one I've got was Polish made and is of very nice quality, and also suitable for rework to 9x21/ 9x23, .38 Super, or 9mm Largo. The 9x23 case are a good deal stronger in the case web area, a nice touch that makes them a top choice.
And possibilities for the Timbs in a PPS-43 or CZ-26 SMG or PPSh-41 SMG [71 round drums!] are there, too. The velocities of the Timbs/Tokarev out of longer 10-12-inch barrels offer interesting possibilities, as does using the heavier 62-grain bullets of the M855 5,56mm round for better penetration with a 1:9 twist barrel.
You ever noticed that the barrel locking lugs of a TT-33 Tokarev go clear around the barrel? They look like something out of a bank vault design.
