SOLD, EXTREMELY FINE SOVIET 1941 TT-33 TOKAREV PISTOL, ALL MATCHING INCLUDING THE MAG, RARELY SEEN THIS SHARP!

In 96% VERY SHARP condition, which is OUTSTANDING for a Tokarev, we have a 1941 production Tula Arsenal made TT-33 Tokarev Service Pistol.  This pistol is all matching to still even include the magazine which you hardly ever see.  The bore is in MINT condition as well, which you just never see.  This pistol is known to have been a vet bringback from WW2.

For North American WW2 military arms collectors the TT-33 is the most difficult sidearm of the major combatants to obtain. The reasons for this are fairly obvious; these pistols were mainly used on the Russian Front, a place where no G.I.’s were in combat and indeed, American interactions with the Red Army only occurred at the end of the war in 1945 when they met on the Elbe River. So where did these Soviet Pistols come from?  Well the answer lies in the large numbers of Soviet weapons that were captured during the 1941 invasion of the Soviet Union.  Vast Quantities of these pistols were captured or surrendered, and they were immediately re-issued to the German Armed forces. These weapons started turning up as G.I. captures in North Africa and throughout Europe.  Not a large number were brought back and they have always been very tough to locate so this is a real find.
