Soviet TT-33

Glowworm · Apr 18, 2019

I picked up a Soviet TT-33 made in 1944. The only markings on it are the serial number and year produced so I'm a little curious about the history of this particular firearm. All the other Soviet TT-33's I have seen around have the caliber etched on it. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

the "other" stampings - not including the arsenal marks were to meet import/export requirements.
look for a rectangle with a diagonal line - that is 1st GRAU

Thanks! There are a few faint symbols on it.
