Tokarev

[Anchors]

This might be a long shot for anyone to know off hand.

But how much can one find these for in free states? (Arizona).

I am from AZ, but I have only dealt with one gun shop there and I was buying modern handguns, I don't know where the good C&R spots are in the Phoenix area (can't drive to Prescott for J&G).

I want to pick one up next time I'm there.
I saw a Chinese one on here just go for $175, which I thought is probably a good price even outside CA, so it got me thinking.

I would prefer a Russian, Chinese as a second option depending on prices. I just read that Yugos do not accept normal magazines?

[nick]

$200 or below for a Romanian or Polish. A Chinese one, it depends, it can be lower or higher than that, depending on what it is. Russians go for $400-500 easily.

That Chinese one was a steal. To think I was late by a few minutes

You are correct. They have a larger frame and use a 9 round magazine. You can modify a CZ52 mag to work in the Yugo.

Living in a free state like the AZ you should get your C&R license. You will be able to get any C&R handgun sent to your front door. No need to drive to J&G they will deliver.

Also, J&G goes to the Phoenix area for gun shows all the time. I'm sure you will find that hey have plenty of C&R guns for you.

I live in CA and AZ and also have a C&R license.
I have bought modern handguns in AZ and imported them (legally via DOJ form) so I know this won't be a problem.

Well, 9 rounds doesn't sound all that bad.
To be honest I just want the commie star on the grips haha.
I would like a Russian, but that is pretty pricey. I think I'll look for another Norinco when I'm in AZ.
The Romys look promising too.

Any good C&R shops down there though?
I didn't buy my own guns until after I started going to school in CA (dumb!) haha.

I guess I'll just get a Yugo from J&G.
Really wanted a normal one though, but sources seem limited (and private sales prices are nuts!)

$165 + S&H = not bad!

[Anchors]

AHHH where were you four days ago!!! haha
Think they will still honor it?

Edit to add: Thank you very much!

[JAGGUY]

Give them a call on Monday. They have honored special requests like that from me on several occasions.

[Anchors]

That would be great.
Since it will still have to go through an FFL I will take every break I can get haha.
Can companies only ship to address on C&R holders license?
Because I am a dual resident in AZ and have bought handguns there and legally imported them. I would rather pay $19 reg. fee than a $50 transfer fee.

[Dr.Mauser]

Is the Russian Tokarev better than the Romanian or Polish versions?

[VegasND]

It is legal for you to have an 03 C&R license for each address. Then you can have handguns sent to AZ and save the extra cost.

I think you have to pick one and I picked CA because I am here for school more.

@Mauser The Russians are certainly more valuable and collectible. If I could find one and get it for around the same $200 I would jump on it definitely.

Russian---> Polish---> Yugo--->Tokagypt --->Romanian--->Chinese

Russians because they are the most valuable. War time build quality is rough

Polish have good build quality, affordable and available.

Yugo also have good build quality and affordable but they have the mag issue. Also available. I recommend buying from J&G because you get two magazines.

Tokagypt /Hungarian are good build quality and were re chambered to 9mm and worked well but don't find them often. They are expensive too.

Romanian are a toss up either good or bad build quality but cheap and work none the less.

Chinese i know the Tokarev chambered are better than 9mm chambered ones. Not common in Tokarev most were chambered to 9mm

Anyone know of any FFL dealer in the Bay Area from Oakland all the way down to San Jose that are vendors of SOG and offer best pricing?

Really? Damn maybe I should get the Polish one then.
I know it sounds dumb, but I really wanted to commie star on the grips though. (Which the Polish lacks).
